"Thank you! Come again."

I know we're all excited about the new "Simpsons Movie", maybe a few of you have already seen it. But I am even more delighted to tell you about a special little 7-11 convenience store has done for this wonderful occasion. There is/was a 7-11 on 42nd Street between 8th and 9th avenue that has changed it's name and exterior to the Kwik-E-Mart! The workers actually wear the signature Kwik-E-Mart shirts and sell Squishees and D'oh-nuts! Click on the picture to get more
details. Such as the First Bank of Springfield's motto, or
Krusty-0's!

Mouse-atouille

I've been so impressed with how well our apartment has been virtually Pest-free. We saw two little cockroaches when we first moved in, but we have been fanatical about not leaving food out and therefore, happily avoided any icky situations. Until now...
That's right! Apparently there's a little hole in the floor by our radiator where the little bugger crept in. When I saw him I actually did the whole "jump up on a chair and squeal, MOUSE! EEW!"
So now, I am paranoid until I can go to the store and get some traps. And I'm a little concerned that I won't catch the mouse before I leave the country for 2 weeks. He could die while I'm gone and then we'd come back to find our apartment reek of rotting dead mouse! I thought I wouldn't be such a wimp about it, honestly. But, ewwwww.....
