I have been taking lots of drug-induced naps to get me through an obstinate headache. So I’m up in the middle of the night and I just heard something scratchy in my wall or in my attic. The exterminator will be called first thing Tuesday–NO MERCY FOR RATS. That’s either the next Cormac McCarthy novel or Coen brothers film.
On an unrelated note, happy birthday, Lindsey! You’ll get your present on Thursday. In the meantime, I hope you have a wonderful day!
More later…
I heard the same scratching in our walls just a few days ago; they are so awful.
Hope you’re feeling better soon, Becky. Hugs to you (())
Thanks, Chris! Yeah, that scratchy sound is the worst.
Dash has taken off his hat and has put on his cape ( you know dogs and superheros… and in this care he is both … ) and he is FLYING to Houston to help.
when Becky’s in trouble …
I am not slow…
It’s hip hip hip …
and away I go!!!!!
Dash!
My hero!
No Mercy for Rats is an excellent title. I see a whole anthology of rat-related stories.
And one of them shall be titled “Rats Bite Back.”
Next in the series: Rat on a Hot Seat where a rat infused with steroids manipulates global climate computer models.
Stupid steroids.
Hope you’re feeling better, Becky. Not sure about rats, but Alfie says he’ll help with any squirrel or rabbit infestations.
Alfie and Dash can tag team! Because there are dog-taunting squirrels here, too.
Thank you! 🙂
… Damn, hope the headache is gone lickity-split. And the exterminator can scare off your visitors.
Thanks! So far, I haven’t heard from the exterminator.
Oops, spoke too soon. He pulled up as I typed that.
