The Mouse, Updated

You may remember my mentioning that I have a mouse. It's a skinny little mouse, so, being me, I started leaving food out for it. (It seems to be very fond of carrots and Trader Joe's Chicken Fried Rice.)

Well, it's getting braver -- now it will sit there eating while I'm looking at it, rather than grabbing a mouthful and darting back under the air conditioner. (I have an air conditioner, which is under my desk. I haven't really needed it, even with getting full sun in the morning.)

So I guess that's progress of a sort -- and it does seem to be filling out a little.
