new friends

I've been making new friends in China! It's unfortunate that I have to kill so many of them... I dont want to, but nobody else in the office likes cockroaches. This morning I met a little mouse! He was so cute!!! I moved into my new apartment yesterday (I'll post pictures as soon as it's cleaned and lookin good) was cleaning all morning! I put the big trash bag outside, I then noticed some other miscellaneous items just outside the door that I wanted to throw out. There was an old sitting stool, water botel with cigarette butts, cigarette butts, and an umbrella with a little mouse nestled in the corner. I picked you the umbrella and almost the instant I noticed the brown blob, it started moving. It walked right passed our door and onto the doorstep of our neighbors. The neighbors door was just a crack open, so the little mouse went right in. I returned to my apartment to finish cleaning. I closed the door behind me and waited to hear the commotion of their new found intruder. I didn't hear anything. He did look like a sneaky mouse. When I left for work my neighbors were cooking lunch. I don't know what it was... possibly mouse stew? It sure did smell delicious!!
