First, I have to let you know that our basement ceiling isn't finished so there's duct work and wires and pipes and such all out in the open for all to see. Most everything else is finished and that's where the tv, computer and our bedroom is.
So I'm sitting at the computer checking email and mopping when I hear a scratching sound coming from the duct work overhead. I look up and catch a glimpse of a furry grey thing scurrying along. It stops then turns around and scurries back the way it came. It did this a few times and even stopped to look at me so I decided to call my parents to have my dad come over to help me get rid of it.
Nobody answered so I called my sister's cell phone (she lives with them) and was talking to her telling her what was going on and she relayed it to my mom and then I said it was on the pipe looking at me and then I screamed because it jumped off the pipe straight at me! My sister's poor ears! It landed about two feet from my feet and scurried off across the living room.
I heard it over by our storage room and then my sis was talking to my dad and he decided to come over to help me. My sis stayed on the phone with me until he got here (for moral support). He found it in the storage room and we watched it scurry over to the wood throw in place and I went out to the garage to move the stuff blocking it and he scurried out and up the wall and jumped from rafter to rafter until he was close to the door and scurried out the door and then I heard him scurrying across the rooftop. Crazy night! no wonder I am wide awake right now.
