| Rats!!! Eeeeeuuuuuuuuuu, yes ratz! Apparently there has been a lot of folks around here (read: whidbey island) have noticed gobs-o-critters of late. To my chagrin, my castle was not exempt. Kim found that they had nibbled on the slug-bait that i had left out on the front deck. Surely that isn't a good thing for them, but they also found a wood pile they like as well. Rats!!!! Absolutely ratz. Surety Pest came out and put up traps, but I was just asking the other day if they had stopped by to check them, and none of us are aware if they were or not. Today Gordy took mom for a ride for erranding, and thought the car was acting funky. He opened the hood and found that they (rats) had been nibbling on the 'yota's spark plug wires and so they need replacing. I asked him how did he know, and his reply was, "turds" --awshit. This does not make me happy at all. I absolutely don't want to have to cope, deal, work with -- this is not something that I am used to having nearby. I am freaked out, and this house is such a sty of late, I'm scared they will smell fud and choose to visit. RATZ! ugh!!! This is soooooooo creepy. I wish Dad was here to protect me by calling 'em by their "other" name, voles . The backstory on that, is that when I was in Clinton at Marcia's, Cassie, Yoko and I that is, I had the best huntercats, who consistently brought me their prezzies, birdies, mice, and one day...this HUGE mouse with teeth and no fur on the tail, to which my Dad said it was "just a Vole...". Many months later, while at Dad's with some PC friends of mine, who were helping Dad with his 'puter, the story some how came out about how Yoko & Cassie were just such sweet kitties with soft mouth and good huntings...and i recalled the tie of the huge VOLES, and they laughed and twinkled at teh story, and let the proverbial cat out of the bag and told me these thangs were not voles, but ...eeeeuuuuuuuwwwwwww, RATZ. Ugh. I need a clean house ASAP. This speaks to the recent bru-ha-ha I was arguing about with Gordy of late about keeping dishes cleaned ASAP and not in the sink, and keeping floors and counters CLEAN. Eeeeeuuuuuuwww! Keep ur toes and fingers crossed for me if you will re: keeping the "voles" out of the house, and preferably, out of my yard, and even my neighborhood.
## ...dang -- grilled cheeses are being made for Mom and Gordy by chef Gordy, and the smell is wafting upstairs to moi...ooooh yum ... were that one was being made for moi....
