He's on the phone with my MIL.
I know she will appreciate it so I interrupt.
"We have another mouse"
He rolls his eyes.
"Do NOT roll your eyes"
I hear squawking through the phone.
"She THINKS we have a mouse" he repeats.
More squawking.
"I found poop" I show him.
He rolls his eyes again.
"I FOUND poop. I found one on the counter, downstairs in the basement, I found one on the floor of her room. And now, I just found a poop in the breadbox."
talking loudly so his mother can hear. "We HAVE a mouse."
Inconceivable.
He explains to her mother. "Yeah, she thinks she saw a mouse dropping in the breadbox. Um hmm. No, it's probably a dropping from before."
I'm pretty sure the noise I made sounded like a dog choking on a chicken bone.
He looks up. I forget his mother is on the phone.
"You think I haven't cleaned the breadbox since JUNE????"
I could hear simultaneous screeching through the phone.
He looks at me, then at the phone.
"Really? You clean the breadbox???"
His mother hangs up in disgust.
"She said you should smack me" he said.
