So today was the first day of inservice... we had a nice short meeting-- then had the rest of the day to work in our rooms... I have been rearranging quite a bit... yesterday I went to school and moved my heavy-ass desk...

Today I was looking for my stapler (I will pause for Office Space Jokes...............done? Good. We shall commence...) Anyway, I discovered something HORRIFIC and NASTY in 2 (not ONE... but 2! Count them 1, 2) drawers....

Apparently my desk played host to a MOUSE this summer... the middle drawer was apparently the restroom for Mickey....

EWWWWWWWWWWW!!! ICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was terrified I would find a dead-- or worse-- ALIVE mouse in my drawer... thankfully Talbott and Johnston are braver than I and helped me clean out the drawers... I did, however, wear my handy-dandy latex gloves... perhaps they need to add a mouse section to the blood-born pathogen video we have to watch every year...

Anyway... several teachers have found similar gifts in their rooms... I now have 2 sticky traps in the room... yesterday they caught a mouse in the office with a sticky trap... I just hope this was a SOLO party mouse-- and that he doesn't have lots of buddies running around...

Now who wants to volunteer to come check the sticky trap? Anyone? Bueller?

damn.

Eeek. I can't deal with mice. Or rodents in general for that matter. I had to get my brother to come over and deal with the one I had in my house.

Good luck.
