ARRGH!

[pegkerr]

The bat that got into our house night before last is not going to be a repeat offender because despite Rob's care, it seemed to have died of shock; it was still sitting in the juice container on top of the garbage can yesterday.

However . . .

I went to bed last night at 10:15--and woke up at 10:37 because a bat was flying over my head.

THESE BATS ARE TOTALLY UNAUTHORIZED!!!

Rob heard the screams more quickly this time and got rid of this one, too (fortunately, Delia did not wake for all the excitement). He walked it about a block and a half away as it swore at him, and he told it to live long and catch lots of mosquitoes but to NOT COME BACK.

Unauthorized Bats!

Okay, am I a monster for saying that this made me laugh at work on a day when it was much needed? Couldn't help but think somebody had neglected to complete a critical form in triplicate--AIB2005-KH, Authorization for Indoor Bats, Kerr Household. But seriously, I hope you get to the bottom of this bat issue quickly. And here's another vote for getting the shot!

Rabies vaccinations are lengthy and painful enough that you don't want to get them unless you have to. A friend of mine had bat exposure in her house: she had to get five doses of vaccine spaced over a month.
