Today, I was sitting on my couch when I felt something weird underneath me. I got up, thinking I'd sat on my phone or something. Wrong. I'd sat on a live mouse. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out what mouse intestines squashed against my bare feet feels like. FML
Today, I woke up to a mouse sitting on my pillow and chewing on my hair. FML
Today, I was outside when a mouse ran toward my feet. There was a wall behind me, so I tried to jump over him. He changed course, and I landed on him. It crunched. FML
Today, I woke up to my cat slowly dragging her paw across my face. I opened my eyes to see a bloody mouse dangling an inch from my face. It was still twitching. FML
Today, I went to put my coat on to go out. I put my hand in my pocket, not knowing there was a mouse sleeping in there. I squeezed it, it bit me and ran off. FML
Today, as I was about to leave my house in my brand new heels, I stepped on a dead mouse. My heel went through it. FML
Today, I woke up to what sounded like twigs snapping. Turns out it was the skull of a live mouse being crushed in my cat's jaws. FML
Today, I set up a mouse trap to kill the rodent plaguing my kitchen. While lying in bed, I heard an unmistakable snap, and ran to see what I'd caught. The mouse trap was missing. I now have a large, angry, and possibly dying animal running around my house. FML
Today, I was at my boyfriend's house, meeting his family for the first time. We were all standing in the kitchen when suddenly a small white and brown mouse ran by. Out of natural instinct, I stomped on it. Turns out, it was his little sister's pet mouse that had gotten out of its cage earlier. FML
Today, I was having a romantic dinner at home with my girlfriend. Everything was perfect—candles, wine, the whole shebang. As we sat down, I felt something moving under the table. I thought it was her playing footsie. Nope, it was our cat with a very live, very tetchy mouse he'd just caught. Cue the screaming and wine spilling everywhere. FML

I'm guessing that's how OP knew that it was a live mouse.

Yup. It launched itself over the top of my sofa and was gone in a flash. I caught it in a humane trap about an hour later, and put it outside.

If you released it *just* outside, like right outside your door, I can guarantee that it is already back inside your house. It was inside for a reason, either to nest or for food, and it already knows how to get inside.

No, I brought it to a bike path nearby, and released it there.

Didn't the mouse make a noise when you sat on it?

Yea, probably a crunching noise. Similar to a phone screen cracking.....or bones breaking.
goldenpuppy 5
Nope. I was totally taken by surprise.

Is the mouse ok?

Yes, I caught it eventually and put it outside.

Get a cat? It might help if it's a good mouser. If not, it will be a good pet.

How could you have mistaken a squirming mouse for a phone even if you thought its on vibrate?

experiencing nature ;) but you might wanna call pest control, just in case you have a nest somewhere
