1 poor mouse

Was at zouk last night when jack msged me askin me to go to his place as he needed my help urgently. It took me more effort than I was willing to go through jus to get out of phuture, which as usual was like a sardine can. I arrived at jack's doorstep in anticipation of the emergency which turned out to be....... a small mouse on the loose in his room. Maggie had been totally freaked out and insisted on stayin downstairs while the both of us tried to catch the thing. So it was that "mission seems possible but actually quite impossible" took place. You would think that 2 guys against an itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini (haha sorry, could not resist)mouse would be a no brainer but think again. Jus tryin to track the thing down alone took half an hour and shifting almost all of the furniture in the room in the process.

Finding it took time but at least it wasn't that tiring. Now catching the thing, thats a different story altogether. The thing was so small and agile it could squeeze through gaps we never thought possible. And if you didn't know by now, mice can jump and quite high at that. All that effort finally paid off after another half hour of tryin to chase the thing, losing it and finding it to chase it all over again when we cornered it and trapped it in a box. I suggested bringin the mouse to keef's dinner today but jack decided to have some fun wit the rodent and shook the box it was in so vigorously that the poor fella soon had its 4 legs facing upwards (si4 jiao3 chao2 tian1) and showed no further sign of movement. The thing probably died of brain damage. Oh well, we can't always have happy endings can we.

2 weeks to christmas! 3 weeks to the end of a parents imposed driving ban and a whole new year to enjoy!!!
