The suspicion that I had a small rodent sharing my living space proved to be true tonight. Though I'm disturbed that it took this long to come to light. I geared up for a mouse hunt after I saw it scurry along the wall while I was watching the Oscars. I got a broom, a bowl, a wooden spoon, and managed to chase it into the kitchen. He's very small and very sneaky. At this moment the kitchen is secure with packing tape and plastic walls, and traps are set. It's times like this when I wish I had a roomate, or a guy in my life, to remove the body after I succeed in trapping it. I'm off to keep watch...
