The Mousetrap

We got a humane mouse trap. And it worked! It caught the mouse. (Illustration of a rattling mouse trap.)
But now the cat thinks the trap is a magic box that makes mice. (Illustration of a magician mouse exiting the trap.)
And he won't stop staring at it. (Illustration of big staring cat eyes.)
Thus ensuring it will never, ever work again. (Gif of a cat paw slowing pawing at the open trap.)

She taped a long string to her bedroom ceiling. Then she used a paperclip to attach a card for her teacher to the string. And at the bottom of the string she taped a note. And it all hung just above her nose so she would see it when she woke up.

The Sharpie

I needed to mail a Christmas package off to my parents, but my black Sharpie had run out of ink. (Illustration: Sharpie frowning and saying "I'm sorry.")
I looked in my art studio to see what else I could use to write out their address. (Illustration: Bamboo reed pen and bottle of ink.)
I wrote out the address the best I could, but Mike said it looked deranged and would probably get flagged byt he post office. (Illustration of the package, looking decidedly deranged.) I mailed it anyway.
Well, I just looked in Mike's desk drawer and guess what I found?? (Illustration of  a happy Sharpie saying "I'm full of ink!) IT WAS THERE THE WHOLE TIME!
Deranged-looking hand lettering in ink that says: The Whole Time

Fish Story

Mike bought a fish from the pet store and they said to bring it in if it dies and they will replace it. Well, it did die, but Mike didn't have time to go to the store, so he stuck it in the freezer in a baggie. (Illustration: Fish in a baggie labeled Do Not Eat)

That was months ago and now there are two more... (Illustration: Three baggies of labeled, dead fish)
