Invasion of the Mice

Went to sleep early to prepare for a bright new day.... I was shocked to hear my cat scrambling towards my bed. But I didn't realize that as I turned on the light She was rampantly chasing a mouse through the hallway onto my bed! I screamed as I flung my bedspread in the air to get rid of the mouse. But to my dismay, as I put on my slippers, only a few inches away, I awoke to see that a mouse was staring at me! Two-thirty in the morning! I just screamed and hurriedly grabbed a few tissues In my attempts to remove this hideous tormenting invasion. It landed in the hallway right next to my oriental rug Only to be clawed by my hero Samii ! A thought came to mind: "Oh, no! I forgot to remove that dead mouse That was on the sticky trap in my kitchen drawer, that's way behind." I took a peek but only to find not one, but two small mice! "Oh, God! Three mice within twenty-four hours! How could I understand....under what circumstances? Why me? Hoping I could get back to sleep, I don't know how, How I managed to get up before my 5:30 alarm clock went off. I woke up suddenly, shivered and shrieked, That I Could Have Slept Beside That Darn Mouse!
