This Tuesday something extraordinary happened in choir. We found a mouse. We also learned that Mrs. Laughter doesn't like mice. Well, that's just the first part. We also found out that mice are really fast. Mrs. Laughter called the custodians to come get the mouse, and it just ran half way across the room to under the piano. The custodians then had to move the piano, but then it just ran behind the binder cabinet. They moved that, and then it ran under a door into the equipment room. Then the custodians (and some brave, helpful choir students) started moving things around trying to find the mouse. Mrs. Laughter has an office that is a room separate from the actual choir room. She went into the room to get a flashlight to help find the mouse. I had said to anyone in general that she might want to close her door, but not wanting to be rude, I didn't repeat myself specifically to her. Well, while the door was open, the mouse ran from the equipment room into her office. At this point Mrs. Laughter nearly lost it. She got as quickly as she could out of the room and we started looking. We looked and looked. Most of the cabinetry was mounted directly to the wall, so there was no place for it to hide there, but we never found it. I hope it ran away, because I think Mrs. Laughter would have a heart attack if she found it in her office almost a week later. Choir drama is real drama.
P.S. Did I mention the mouse was only about two inches long?
