Had to pass this on to you guy's. My family and I live way out in the "Sticks". We have an exterminator come out on a regular basis. But in the winter we get a field mouse or two at times that sneak in. The Exterminator and our cat keep them under control. Now my wife is terrified of them. Now this woman can walk up to a snake and pick it up. But a mouse sends her crawling up the wall's. Yesterday morning she saw one run under the stove. She freaked. Then left for work. Later on I pulled the stove out a little and the cat caught it. I took it away from her a got rid of it. Last night I did not tell her the cat caught it. I went to bed early. When my wife came to bed, I pretended to be asleep. I had my back to her. As she laid there a moment, I lightly scratched the Headboard. She sat straight up. I laid there doing my best to keep from bursting out laughing still pretending to be asleep. She laid back down and got comfortable. After a moment I scratched the board again. She sat straight up and grabbed my arm shaking me. I pretended to just wake up. "What is it?" i asked. She said in a panic. "I heard a mouse, Honey get your gun". " My gun?" Yes get your gun she ordered. I burst out laughing. Was that you scratching? she asked. "Yes" I said just laughing. Oh she was mad. Now I'm sitting in the kitchen typing this eating a piece of cherry cheesecake at 3:52 a.m. I'll be sleeping on the couch. But it was worth it. lol

You know what they say about PAYBACKS...?

Classic. I'd relay it to the wife but I hope to use it myself, sometime.

That was a great read... I will share it with my wife who has the willies for spiders.
Watched her once out in Iquitos where the tarantulas get beyond big bound up upon
the table faster that a high jumper and scream the whole way up.
I sure would be careful about scratching anymore soon.

That was too funny. Reminds me of when I was a kid and my Dad brought home a big rubber spider and put it in the hallway. We waited in the living room for my Mom to find it. We heard her scream and run into the kitchen. She runs back with a fly swatter and proceeds to wail on it and every time she hit it, it would bounce up and she'd hit it again, saying " I can't kill it, I can't kill it".
After hearing us rolling on the floor laughing, she figured it out. She was mad for a minute, but was a good sport about. And he still got to spend the night in his own bed.
