    OH CHRIST JESUS.
    I thought I’d mentioned that Zooks caught a rat and then it escaped under the couch when she did the Yowl of Triumph, but that was when some of us were having login problems (including me).
    Well I thought it had escaped but either I somehow missed it or it came back and carked it under the other couch - not the one that I sit on but the one I’ve been using as a laundry folding station. I thought somethng smelt meaty, checked under the couch, and… yep.
    I loathe dealing with dead things but I couldn’t really call the lawn guy at 10 at night and I didn’t want to have it in the house overnight, so I got it outside and in the bin - after having to put it back in the bag after I thought it was gathered up and then realising the bag felt suspiciously light. Uggghhhhh.
    Eucalyptus oil is sprinkled on the spot, both loungeroom windows are open and the fan is on, and since I had washing on that couch, it’s all in the washing machine - since the lot next door is vacant.
    Now I’m having one of the vodka cruisers I luckily bought today and am going to watch something fluffy and consoling.
