Urban Critters
"There's a bat in your house."
"A what?"
"A bat."
"A what?"
"A bat", she says and points to the floor.
"Oh sh-t!"
Sure enough there it was: a little brown furry critter draped across a stone bookend sitting beside my TV stand. Nice. I live in the country three years and never even see a mouse. I move downtown and there's a freakin' bat in my living room.
There were three women and one man in the room. I reluctantly admit that us three girls jumped back and immediately looked at our friend Dave to do something. Luckily he was game (thanks Dave!). I can only guess the thing came in with me when I was hanging out on my balcony at night during the heat wave. What concerns me the most is that I hadn't been out since the previous day, which means it kept me company during the night. Eew.
