the glass cell (MAgneto?!?!?!) :)

I have bested my arch enemy: Speedy Gonzales.

He is now trapped inside the humane trap we got specially for him (her???) trying to eat it’s way out of it.

But I still feel triumphant!! It actually made my day to capture the damn rodent! heheheheh

My Arch Enemy has beem taunting me for a week now, running around the traps I have laid down for him/her am laughing at me as I ran after it with broom in hand. But no more!!

Today I have decided to change my tactics from passive to active.

My first measure as to set up sentries at the kitchen door.

I figured that TB's bionicles would be scarry enough for a lil mouse.

I soon found out that I couldn;t be mor wrong as Speedy attacked one of them on it's way out of the kitchen!

Speedy Gonzales had a plan: It was going to zoom past the living room, into the fireplace and escape through the chiminea, probably to return later with reinforcements (I still haven’t had the chance to interrogate it…)

Unfortunatelly (for Speedy) our chiminea is blocked so the rodent fell back on it’s ass. By then I was alert and had already sieged the chiminea.

I'd set up the trap and come up with a strategy.

The idea was to leave only one way out (where the humane mouse trap would be already in place and then using a broom I would scare it straight to where I wanted…

To my surprise IT WORKED perfectly!!!

The culprit has now been captured and it is awaiting it's sentence in the morning when the boy will be awake.

The culprit has now been captured and it is awaiting it's sentence inside it's glass prison to be pronounced in the morning when the boy will be awake. The sentece will probably be death if the lil bugger doesn;t know how to swim... TB wants to throw it in the Wandle River

THAT was a week full of ups and downs.

RunDown: We made an offer for the Earlsfield building to move the Metanoia Cafe into… and someone upped and toppled our offer… Then I get a parking tkt for parking in front of our house, well 2 parking tickets, one in the evening and other in the morning (if I see the “£$£%^^ traffic warden that did the deed I’ll run over him/her…) Well pissed about the situation I go to Merton Council where something impossible happened… they not only admitted they where in the wrong (1 for not sending my permit and 1 for the parking tickets), but also cancelled all my Parking tkts (I had 4), printed a brand new permit for me on spot AND apologised for their mistake!!

I was like… WOOT?!?!?!?! :)

Then a new photography job presents itself from a place I would never imagine… well not without me offering anyway… :)

Then there is a possibility of taking over the website production of a website that will be seling Brazilian Exports in the UK (Specialized in clothing, bikinis, etc)… Still some negotiations to go ahead… but lets see how it goes… I’ll keep you posted.

Then I get to work today… and it all went down hill! Well… let’s put it like that… WORST Sunday… EVER!

The evening got a bit better… TB and Vic arrived from her grandad’s party and I played wit the boy a bit before he went to bed… I missed the chickey monkey today… :)

I even got some quality time with the missus before she dropped asleep.

This small victory against Speedy Gonzales REALLY came to lift my spirits a lot!

Only problem is that it spoiled my plans to go and buy a bbgun!

Oh well.. never mind!!! :)

zya!

I know Speedy Gonzales! He lives in my kitchen!!

Remember the little mouse that TB had found in the bottom of our garden whilst hapilly bouncing on his Trampoline??

Well… it seems to have gotten tired of living under the weather and decided to move indoors!

I am an insomniac… well mostly insomniac anyways… It seems I have gotten a lot better since I got married and had my first kiddo… The fact is that I spend most of my nights even working on websites, or retouching photos and editing videos ( and when I can’t be bothered, just playing xbox or watching TV).

Sure, if you know me you already knew that. But the point I want to make is that being a night creature means that one learns that strange noises happen, specially as the complete silence amplifies anything. And I am used to listening to steps or seeing vultures and feeling “presences” sometimes so it didn’t bother me much when I saw a tiny one close to the door a fiw nights ago… actually the reason it scared me is because I thought it was a huge spider.

Well it so happens that that huge spider was our old lil friend from the garden and today I had an encounter close and personal with it as it ventured to the middle of the living room while I watched “The Motorcycle Diaries” (great film BTW… specially when you understand spanish… the jokes sound better then than on the subtitles! LOL). It looked at me and I liiked at it and as I moved it decided to run for cover!

Of course when I realized what was it  in fact I mustered all my courage and went hunting for the minuscule rodent all around the livng room, the dinning room and kitchen. It was a battle of epic proportions (and I am sure the mouse world will treat it like that) as for 25 minutes we were locked in a battle for life or death. Me armed with a brrom… the mouse armed with it’s incredible speed.

And he won… Mouse I dub thee Speedy Gonzales!!!

I have to conceed… the little bugger was too fast for me! But whoever laughs later laughs the most (or understood the joke after everyone else… ) and revenge is a dish best served cold!

My first mission for tomorrow is to go and buy a (humane) mouse trap!

Speedy Gonzales, you might have gottern the best of me today… but tomorrow is another day… and the war is on until I finish you up!!! mua hua hua hua hua!! *evil laugh*.

more about the epic war of 2 worlds as it develops… (keep an eye on twitter for updates on the fly).

zya!!!

PS: I know I know… I’ve been neglecting the blog latelly… but… I’ve got my reasons and you will soon know them… :)

Kathia’s wedding was great and I think I’ve managed a few GREAT shots so I think it will make a lovely wedding video. Will post some snips later (I’ve got her consent to use it in my portfolio… yayyy!! :) )
