mouse!

I'm home sick from work. Driving is an issue today. I can pretty much just sit in front of the computer and not move at all, but moving makes the room spin, so driving is clearly not in my skill set today.

Instead, I've been working on some printed items for my shindig -- food labels, raffle tickets, and a label for the Reaver sauce. I'd just gotten things printed and was headed downstairs to get them. Opened the door and saw a mouse sitting on the step. I pretty much just froze and we both stared at each other for a minute. I didn't know what I was supposed to do. If i wasn't afraid of some mouse disease or being bitten, I'd have just picked it up. Didn't have a bucket or anything on hand. Looked around hoping it wasn't going to run off and spotted a small fleece throw thing the dog's been sleeping on. Grabbed that quickly and quietly, snuck back over and threw it over the mouse, which is.. I dunno. probably not well as it didn't really do anything. I mean, it was sort of walking around, but it's not like it ran or anything. Anyhow, I scooped it up, wrapped it in the bulk of the material, and dumped it outside. Go me?

Suppose now I should go find some food and finish up these labels. Have to cut them out. I also want to try and make a lawn sign so people will know which house it is. Luckily, we'd just had our siding and stuff down, so the company's big plastic sign is still on our lawn - it'll make a good base.

Sounds like you have an ear infection.

This one time, my inner ear got infected and I kept falling over. Took almost a week to recover where I could walk and turn a corner without tipping over. :P

Nope, it's allergies. Or at least, I figure it is. It's not an ear infection. Trust me... this happens often enough :\
