Mice!!!
I have mice! The school has set up traps all over the kitchen and now have caught two of 'em-but neither one is dead
the first was in a snap trap but it was only caught on it's poor little shoulder; quite alive in fact. So I go to my meeting thinking it'll be dead when I get back but no, it's still strugling, hanging in there. I think "I know, I'll kill it, end it's painfull misery" but then, just the way he always does at these kind of decision times, the Buddha pops into my head, saying, you know, "Compassion and mercy, and if it's not dead, dude, it might not meant to be". So I pick it up with the dustpan and take it outside and oh-so-gently pry the bar back and let it go in the grass. Back inside, wash my hands, go for another midnight run (3 in 3 days 
) Come back, turn on the light, go to the kitchen for water-another one, this one on the sticky pad 
Not Dead! Oh no, just stuck, hopelessly trapped with it's little lungs hyperventilating and it's face stuck to the floor.
Why do I suffer over this shit

clara:
You suffer because people who kill mice go straight to hell. Buy no-kill traps and release them outside.
