I’ve just spent the last ten minutes standing outside my cubicle while a tiny mouse runs in and out. One of the managers chased it down and trapped it in a garbage can.
This is basically my worst nightmare come true.
I’m sorry, Boston, I’m afraid I can’t come live there now.
Merrick says
Are there lots of mice in Boston?
craftyashley says
There’s lots of everything along the east coast. The only good thing about Vegas is that we don’t really have pests. No mice, barely cockroaches, etc. Erin Harrison lived in NY for a while- she actually killed a rat with a frying pan! I couldn’t imagine!
Heather says
So gross. I’m sure your place in Boston will be mouse-free. Right?
RA says
Awful awful awful. I hate rodents so very much. It’s the teeth! Shudder.
TheMoncurs says
No mice in Phoenix!!

Yep. Trees and humidity bring untold –roaches, ants, molds, termites (start watching This Old House to prepare), and even wandering squirrels. Get a cat. Or two. As for NYC and rats…ooh–I read staggering stats on the number of those there. Don’t look too closely at the tracks in the subway stations. Or always carry a cat. Or two. Better still a mongoose. Do you like fish? NH and VT–two of my faves. And you’ll also be close enough to head on up to Freeport, ME to L.L. Bean if you get insomia! They never close!!!

Now, now, just go read Despereaux….
and think happy mousey thoughts
Lisa says
wanna borrow my dog? She’s two for two in as many days!
Packrat says
Thanks, Janssen. Congratulations and best wishes!
Oh, I hope you don’t get anymore mice! Ugh!

Better your cubicle than your apartment. Believe me.
And let me just verify what everyone is saying about NYC and rats/mice. It’s all true. I saw one so fat the other day I thought it could be a squirrel!
