so last night i went with my husband up to a small town called rockmart, ga to go to a family bonfire and hayride. there was lots of candy and picknick food and plenty of old people. it was fun with a few hitches. first one, they forgot the hay and the trailer. well, they remedied the trailor part, but apparently coming up with hay (even in the country) on short notice is not an easy thing. so, we piled into the trailer without the hay and the kids had a good time anyway.

now, the second thing (and this is only a hitch for me), was the fact that it was a bonfire and there was no drumming and no dancing people. its seemed wrong somehow. i kept wondering off into the night air out of reach of the light to hug myself and wish it was my bonfire and my friends. daecon and i left relatively early with felicity and left simon with his grandmother to run and be rough with his cousins.

when we got home we tried sitting down and watching “the big lebowski”. i got about 2/3rds they way through it before i had to turn it off. several of the characters were just annoying me and i was tired. so, we retired to the bedroom and went to sleep a while later. it was then i woke up to feel bailong batting at something on my bed inbetween my legs (oh.. stop snickering). i tried kicking at the covers to knock the cat off and i felt something hit my arm and scurry. EEEK!!! ok, that’s it. i got up and turned the lights on (much to my husband’s displeasure) and proceeded to dismantle the bedsheets and everything. i kept praying it wasn’t some huge spider. we found nothing so i went back to sleep after chasing bailong out of the bedroom since she was still attacking the foot of the bed. we chased her out and went back to sleep.

so, after getting to work i get an IM from my hubby telling me that there was in fact a mouse and it was hiding under the chair and has now been evicted.
