Kicking the Roomate Out

Well I decided I couldn't have my new roommate hogging all my popcorn so I made up my mind he had to go.. :) Actually I took that picture of the little vole back in June.. I woke up one morning and was headed to the bathroom when I heard a noise in the living.. So I walked over to investigate.. I happened to walk up to the popcorn bowl.. All of the sudden popcorn started flying every where as the little guy freaked out when he saw me.. It kind of scared me for a second!! He couldn't get out off the bowl, so I had to tip the bowl up on its side.. He jumped out and run into my foot before running and hiding in the couch.. I ended taking care of him where he never came back.. That's kind of a sad story so I won't tell you about it.. ):



Anyhow last week when I was drifting off to sleep something making little noises in my bedroom brought me wide awake.. Let me tell you it's kind of scary when your all alone in a house and you wake up to some noise from inside your bedroom!! So i flipped on my lamp and grabbed my 45!! LOL no I just turned on the light in time to see a little fury ball run under the heater.. I got to looking around and noticed alot of little brown dropping all over my floor.. Apparently Ive had the little roommate living with me for awhile.. ;-)



I didn't think much about it until I went to make lunch for work and found little vole dropping in my lunch box.. Arrgh }:( I had some medicine in there and he had chowed through the wrapper and ate some of it.. LOL He probably never felt so good.. For the next couple of night at about 11:30 right when i'm drifting off to sleep he comes in and pays me a visit.. Out of all the rooms in the house I don't know why he comes into mine.? And it was always at the same time..



He didn't bug me much until one day I happened to leave a banana in my lunch box and he ate a nice little hole in it.. So I decided that my little roommate that was eating my food and wasn't paying rent had to go.. So I headed to the store to get a mouse trap.. When I got there I just couldn't bring myself to get one that would kill my little friend.. LOL ya I'm crazy.. So I got a live trap.. It worked pretty good and I ended up catching him and letting him go outside.. He hasn't came back yet so maybe he found a new home.. I do kind of miss the little guy. It gets kind of lonely in the house..



LOL ya I don't have a very exciting life if I'm doing a post on a vole.. Well I guess it's better then nothing... hopefully...
