the house mouse...
today was a lazy day... i slept in, watched some tv, went out for froyo w/ some friends...it was a good day...
i chilled for a few hrs, went online, obsessed a bit about jessica lange, (speaking of which, i got frances! and two other flicks)...and then sat down to watch tin man w/ zooey deschannel!
suddenly from downstairs: "MW(aka my mom) A MOUSE! A MOUSE! HE RAN FROM HERE, TO HERE! A MOUSE!!!"
i ran out to see what all the commotion was about...
and there it was... DW (aka my dad) shirtless, sweating, w/ an earpiece dangling from his neck and intertwined w/ his necklace, in full hunter mode: mop in one hand, bug spray in the other, lunging from room to room seeking the cretin.
"it was a mouse! a rat! it was huge! it was this big! it ran from here, into here and out again!"
meanwhile, MW and i tried to reason w/ the rantings of a madman..
"DW, where would he come in from? we live on the 4th floor! w/ tiles!"
he didn't care to listen...
so off he was, tearing from room to room, rattling, shaking, moving, spraying and prodding w/ his mop...
my mother and i couldn't stop laughing... this upset and angered him even more...
he won't sleep tonight... he'll be up thinking, worrying, tossing and turning...ugh...i feel bad...but it is kinda funny...
we placed a small piece of cheese in the middle of the living room...
everyone pray it's still there come morning...
on a completely random note: i recently watched my new copy of frances, and HOLYSHIT! i love that movie... jessica lange's performance is just mind boggling...the way she embodies that character, the amount of pain and despair...the agony, the tragedy...breaks my chest cavity every time...there's another layer every time i watch it... i notice the subtle nuances, the complexity, the intricacy of the acting...i highly recommend every one see this... it's an oldie but a goodie!
relevant quote: Arresting Sergeant: Your name?
Frances Farmer: You jerks drag me down here in the middle of the night and you don't know who the hell I am?
Arresting Sergeant: Your name lady?
Frances Farmer: Frances Elena Farmer. Want me to spell it?
Arresting Sergeant: And your address?
Frances Farmer: Put me down as a vag, vagrant, vagabond. What is this, a joke? It's a joke? Assault and battery? Huh? I barely touched that bitch.
Arresting Sergeant: Occupation?
Frances Farmer: Cocksucker.
