Possum

January 12th, 2008

We’ve got a possum! When you move into a house that’s been vacant for over two years, you don’t know what you’ll find. Here are some of the things I found upon searching: a candle stick (no candle), a Bud Lite can, shattered pieces of the NES Rad Racer Wheel, and a possum.

He’s living in our porch, which has a broken hot tub. I’ve still actually never been in that room after living here over a week. It’s not from fear of the possum. I was trying to get in there to get a good picture of the possum for this very blog, but I couldn’t get the door open.
He’d been eating the snow in there, but that all melted about three days ago. I haven’t seen him since which means he either left to find other food, is hibernating, or is decomposing.

That’s Shocking

December 7th, 2007

I’m in the process of moving, so I was packing the stereo system. I had to untangle the stereo cord, from a Christmas tree light cord. Part of the Christmas tree cord had exposed wires which I didn’t notice until the shock.
I emitted a girlish scream that faded into a high-pitched giggle when a numb tingling feeling tingled on my tingly finger. I now feel electricity running through my veins. I believe that this shock, combined with hundreds of thousands of hours of playing Nintendo, has given me super powers.
I vow to use my new-found powers only for good.
