Rapping At My Window
Last night I was awakened by a really scary sound. Like a mouse.
At first I thought they were inside my television cabinet, scratching at the back of the T.V. It sounded like sharp nails attempting to climb something slick. Maybe a few mice. Or one big shiny rat!
I just stayed in bed for a minute and considered ignoring it. I was THAT tired. Jason was in the living room working on the computer, so when the sound didn’t go away, I pulled myself out of bed to go get help. From what, I still didn’t know. I was halfway down the hall when it hit me. It was the stupid tree outside. It was particularly windy last evening and one of the branches was scraping across the window.
I’m not sure, maybe mice would have been better. At least we could have scared them away and I’m positive my one of my four cats would have killed them overnight. As it was, it was way too dark to go outside and trim the branch, so for the rest of the night….SKKKKKRRRAAAAEEEEAAAAA! every freaking two minutes!
I ended up sleeping on the couch and now my neck hurts.
