Senior moment. Pulled into grocery lot and the Rolling Stones Satisfaction came on the radio. Thought to myself "I think that was a 1964 song." Looked it up and, yup, 1964. 60 YEARS AGO! :oops:

And yeah, I bought the 45.

This seems to be the year of the mouse. Just caught my eighth mouse on near my AC unit. Saw a mouse on the south side of our house and saw one running along the neighbor's foundation. Figured I set the ol' Victor trap out with some peanut butter. Three brown field mice and 5 gray mice (must have got the entire family) so far. No signs of any in our house. Would rather get them while it's warm outside instead of this fall when they want to come inside.

I think with the AC line had a bare spot with no insulation, so they were using the condensation as a source of water when it was dry out. Makes me wonder if I caught this many, there are a lot of places that are not kept up with a lot of leaves and materials around their foundations, so they must have an army of them.

Why do I feel like nobody gets me? Those close to me are concerned that I'm not understood very well by many, but I literally don't care, will this affect my image in their eyes?

Coming clean about beating your meat and then this post is an awesome kick-off here though.

My house trap caught one last week. Sigh.
