Drama in the Desert
Warning, This Blog contains Graphical elements that will make you scream, hyperventilate, climb on objects and just plain freak out, well at least that’s what Brenda did.
After taking in the sights and sounds of uptown Sedona and surrounding areas allday, we were in for the night, had a nice healthy dinner and got to bed early for the long drive back to Cali.
Sleeping good, I was awaken by strange sounds coming from Brenda's side of the cottage, after ignoring the calls of my name several times, which I'm good at (ask Jean) I was totally awakened when Brenda was standing on the end of my bed looking like she had just been chased by some sort of monster, breathing hard, screaming, eyes wide open, she told me of the creature that was running around in her room.
Totally not wanting to get up and investigate, I went over to take a look and what do I see........Nothing!, I turn and look back at her and of course she say's that there was something and sure enough, when I turned my back it ran by again and again the screams and heavy breathing,
I turned to look and once again nothing! This is getting pretty old at this point, I think that she dialed 911 because someone was at the door to investigate the disturbance. He politely smiled an said that he would be back to eleviate the problem, at this point, Brenda started to pack up everything to leave. i asked; "where are you going?" we were leaving in about seven hours anyway, she didnt care, she wanted out! So while she packed, I sat and waited for the calvary to arrive to eliminate our problem. While I waited, Jerry as I named him popped his cute little head out from beneath the couch and said hello (screams from the other room) I started snapping pictures of the Creature of the Sedona desert. The nice man returned with some peanut butter and a couple of traps set them up and left, I finally convinced Brenda that Jerry had left out the front door, even though I had seen him run through the kitchen area moments earlier.( please don't tell) We Finally got to Sleep (in the same bed) One good note, I was told that I kicked her during the night....Oops!
Poor Jerry, ............Apparently he had a craving for peanut butter and never had a chance.......

The Birthday Crasher
Hello everyone, This is how it really went down, me and Joe had spent a lovely afternoon sightseeing in Sedonna Friday afternoon, and returned to our little cottage so that I could go a do a presentation and get a $100 bucks. So I had a quick bite to eat and left for my presentation, and Joe took a nap. When I returned to the room, I was minding my own business watching tv and talking on the phone, when (Jerry as Joe calls him) runs across the room, ( i called him speedy). So I told my girlfriend I'll have to call u back, and took off running in the direction of Joe's room hollering and screaming, as he ignored me, I decided that maybe if i jumped on his bed I would get his attention, and sure enough I did. As I continued to explain to him that it was a mouse in my room and for him to go get it. He was not happy, he was like man I'm tired I need to get some sleep. I was like no you need to go get it. So finally he saw that there would be no sleep until (Jerry) was gone, he decided to go and investigate the situation, and sure enough everytime I would see him, Joe would not. So while he was looking for him, I was on the phone with the front desk yelling at the staff that I had a mouse in my room, and they told me they would have someone to come over to check it out. Finally someone knocked on the door, and Joe explained to the guy that I had seen a mouse. So there they both stood looking for (Jerry) while I stood on top of the bed in the other room. So after about 30 mins, the guy returns with two traps, and Joe tells me to start packing, so I was like yes, lets go, so I emptied out the fridge, packed my bags and was ready to go, and he looked at me like where do you think you're going? and I said out of here, and he said what you gonna do sleep in the truck?, we ain't going nowhere tonight, we're leaving at 4:30 a.m. I told him I will not be slepping in there, so I slept in the bed with him, as he snored and kicked me in the back, with that foot of his, ( i have the foot print to prove it). Around 12:30 a.m. (Jerry) must have gotten hungry and went for the peanut butter because I heard the trap snap, and that was the end of (Jerry) may he rest in peace. And that's the truth the whole truth so help me God.
