My New Best Friend

Most weeks I talk to no one but myself and the Radio/TV. I very seldom go outside. I check mail usually on Wed, the day I take my garbage to the curb.

My daughter and her family take me to the store every two weeks usually on Friday.

The last three or four days though I have a new best friend. They tell you to keep your friends close and enemies closer? Well this little (pick your own expletive) is my BEST friend.

I have is little tiny mouse. I have been trying to catch it for three or four days. Evidently it does not like peanut butter or I am not getting the trap set right.

I think I shared that I drop small bits of popcorn, bread, crackers and etc to see if I have a roommate.

All I am doing is feeding it but last night I caught myself talking to it – telling it what my next move would be. Then I saw the little creep sneak (running like hell) across the living room to the back of the entertainment center.

I talked more yesterday than I have in weeks – too bad it does not talk back.
