Just another day...

There is a freaking rat in my room! I mean there was a freaking rat in my room!! Admittedly it wasnt big (quite tiny really) but still it was a RAT! Oh wait.. how do you differentiate a rat from a mouse? Hmm.. anyway it was one or the other but it was here alright! Goodness! It made an appearance.. went into my closet... then came back out towards my bed and disappeared! Caused me to spend a good half hour (or maybe more) trying to locate a hole in my room where it might have came in from (and possibly escape through) Alas.. I couldnt find any hole in my room..

That lead to two conclusions: 1) It's still in my room (hiding in the heater? since its the only place we didnt/couldnt search) or 2) It's gone out of my room and escaped through the hole (since we couldnt find it after the house-search) The hole happens to be a huge gap in my bathroom cabinet under the sink that's covered with a cardboard... why this is so? I have no idea. But it's been like that since we moved in. It hadn't bothered us (until now that is) cause we dont make use of the cabinet anyway.

Tonight's biggest revelation however is Bertina's fear of rats/mouse.. hehe.. totally unexpected. For some reason, I'd thought she'd handle it pretty ok... Afterall we are sort of "rat(s)" ourselves :p
