Sunday night I cuddled up into bed in the new condo, exhausted from a fantastic weekend with Mr. Green’s Former Roommate and ready to finally have my bed to myself and get some much needed sleep. And after an evening in the hot tub with my new Mr. Roomie I was able to fall into a deep sleep… only to be woken up a couple hours later with a whooshing noise. Sounded like something was outside playing on the trees outside my window. Now at the point I think I should have looked out the window and realized that I didn’t have any trees. In fact I have a field on one side and Lake Havasu on the other, so there is nothing but dirt and water around me. At about 4 I hear jumping, and I thought oh it must be the squirrels playing. Was mildly annoyed as they played all night and at one point it even sounded like they were right in the room with me… until 6am when I turned over on bed and looked straight into the eyes of the field mouse that was cuddling on my pillow with me! Yes you read that right a mouse got in from the field and was not only on my bed but was trying to snuggle down with me. I screamed like a girl and ran straight into Mr. Roomies room to come and get it. Luckily we found out real quickly Mickey doesn’t like Mr. Roomie so it ran straight into the kitchen and hid under the fridge… about a half hour later when I realize we were not going to be able to coax him out, I set off for the gym with dreams of him just wondering out the doors we left open for him!
Sadly that was not the case. When we got home on Monday night we searched and searched but couldn’t locate him, until about midnight when we started hearing him clawing at the doors to get out…to which he started to play on my binds trying to get out my sliding glass door. As you can imagine I didn’t get any sleep. I layed in bed with my light on cowering just trying to catch the little sucker. Around 4 he once again trying to cuddle in bed with me… and once again I ran down the hall and woke up Mr. Roomie. Same story- Mickey saw Roomie and ran under the fridge DAMN, lost him again!!!!
The house is now set with humane traps, but I think we were able to chase him out of the apartment last night finally. I barricaded myself in my room (after Roomie checked under the bed and in the closets to make sure Mickey wasn’t hiding somewhere) and was able to get a bit of sleep. Not much though because I still slept with the lights on and woke up every 10 min when I heard any noise! Tonight I’m going to attempt to sleep with the lights off… wish me luck!
