campylobacterSomething wicked is happening in my house, and I think an evil, supernatural being is responsible.
Yesterday, I brought home a cute little toy mouse, dressed in a little red ribbon. I heard a wee rattling noise when I shook him. I named him Mr. Tiddlywinks.
I removed the ribbon, because Mr. Tiddlywinks looked uncomfortable wearing it. Four hours later, I found Mr. Tiddlywinks lying helplessly on the floor, with a mysterious slimy substance coating his fur:
And this morning, after a night of hearing disturbing rattling sounds emanating from outside the bedroom, I found, on the floor, the carcass of poor, innocent Mr. Tiddlywinks with his pelt partway peeled off, his plastic innards punctured with what appears to be multiple toothmarks. He no longer rattles.
My best guess is that a small, fast, black creature with pointy ears is preying on the 99-cent toy mice I bring home. I managed to capture a picture of the beast:
When will the carnage end, I ask?
Poor Mr. Tiddlywinks demands an answer.
