Last night our car's alarm was triggered about three times before I decided to unlock the car - must be some mechanical or electrical fault, I thought. Mind you, the car is on the front lawn in front of the house. First, I thought that it was somebody trying to steal the old car. Interesting how my thoughts would almost always go to crime related activities as the first reaction to when something unfamiliar is happening close to me.
Now, this morning I suspect that it was a mouse. You see the mouse wanted our attention so he triggered the alarm every time. Then, of course, I outwitted him!
So he changed his tactics. He would now show up in the house int he middle of the night, make some noise and torture us. Anita's hearing is better than mine (for sounds of mice and other creatures) and she woke me up a couple of times with a siren like noise - much more intense than the car alarm.
Of course the mouse was nowhere to be seen - so I guess he won this round! ... just you wait Mr Mouse! We will get you!
