And to think that I saw it on Mackay Street...

Today on my walk home from school, I saw a mouse--a real live one!

And then, in my excitement, I nearly put my hand through a spiderweb where a very unhappy spider twitched its legs at me in obvious displeasure.

The mouse was hanging out in a churchyard, which made me think of those sweet old church-mice in Disney's "Robin Hood" who were saving their last farthing (or something like that) for a rainy day. Before mean old wolf-Sheriff of Nottingham cruelly snatched it out of their tiny mouse-hands, that is.
