not really a story... but yeah.. it involves that cat again. she let a mouse get away. the mouse was half dead, and she let it get away.
my brother and i were out snowmobiling on New Years' Eve. all of a sudden, austin (my brother, in case you couldn't immediately figure that out) stops and jumps off. he'd run over this mouse and it was digging around in the snow trying to escape. but aussie snags it, takes it back to the house, and we show it to mom. the things just sitting there in his hand and trembling... so we give it to sara. she bats it around, then picks it up, and drops it right next to the woodpile. the thing was gone before anyone could do anything about it.
stupid cat
also: my father and i were working on the pump house roof, which really needed a new one. then we here all of this really loud squawking/chirping. we turn and see sara run under this wood pile with a baby starling in her mouth, and there was a cloud of adult starlings just circling her. so she sets it down, and is just sitting there under the wood, with a flock of big black birds over her head. it was kinda funny... kinda weird... kinda scary. like the story/movie The Birds. 'cept... they did it for a reason.
