UNWELCOME VISITOR

THIS MORNING I GOT UP AT 5:00 TO GET SOME OFFICE WORK DONE. BRIAN WAS GONE AND I HEARD SOME WEIRD NOISES COMING FROM DOWNSTAIRS. I WAS ABOUT TO GO CHECK IT OUT WHEN A BIRD FLEW UP FROM DOWNSTAIRS. I THOUGHT THIS WAS ODD BUT KINDA FUNNY. I WAS ABOUT TO GET OUT MY CAMERA TO TAKE A PICTURE AND BLOG ABOUT IT. THEN THE STUPID THING STARTED DIVE BOMBING ME. YEA, I REALIZED IT WAS NOT A BIRD BUT A FREAKING NASTY BAT, IN MY HOUSE! GROSS. I RAN FOR A BROOM AND TRIED TO WACK IT. I CALLED BRIAN FREAKING OUT AND HE TOLD ME TO DO WHAT I ALREADY DID. I DECIDED TO SHUT ALL THE KIDS DOORS TO KEEP IT OUT. BRIAN SAID I COULD LOCK MYSELF IN THE BEDROOM UNTIL 7:00 AND HE WOULD CALL HIS DAD TO COME GET IT. UM, TWO EXTRA HOURS WITH A BAT...NO WAY. SOOO... I SHUT THE DOORS AND STOOD WITH THE BROOM ABOVE MY HEAD IN THE HALLWAY. SURE ENOUGH THE THING CAME AT ME AGAIN. I WACKED THE CRAP OUT OF THAT NASTY THING AND THEN BROKE MY BROOM WACKING IT ON THE FLOOR. IT STILL KEPT MOVING SO I AGAIN CALLED BRIAN AND ASKED WHAT TO DO... HE INFORMED ME TO TAKE IT OUTSIDE. YOU WOULD THINK I COULD COME UP WITH THAT ON MY OWN BUT OOOHHH, GROSS THERE WAS A BAT IN THE HOUSE. I TRIED BUT THE FREAKING THINK KEPT MOVING A LITTLE. BRIAN TOLD ME TO GET A SHOVEL. THAT WORKED! I DID HOWEVER HAVE TO WACK IT WITH THE SHOVEL TO GET IT TO STOP TWITCHING. I HAD THE THING ON THE SHOVEL AS FAR AWAY FROM ME AS POSSIBLE. I MANAGED TO GET IT OUTSIDE AND IN THE GARBAGE! YAY ME! THEN I REALIZED IN MY HASTE TO GET THE THING OUT I LOCKED MYSELF OUT OF THE HOUSE. OH THE FUN TIMES. I SWEAR THINGS LIKE THIS ONLY HAPPEN WHEN BRIAN IS GONE AND I HAVE TO BE TOUGH. I HATE IT. I THINK I MADE BRIAN, CHAD AND SOLS DAY THOUGH. THEY ALL HAD A HUGE LAUGH AT MY EXPENSE, EVEN THOUGH BRIAN DENIES IT. THANKS HONEY FOR YOUR QUICK THINKING THOUGH. LOVE YOU.
