Surprise Visitor

Hello there, Mr. Possum!! You will not believe what happened last night! A WILD POSSUM COZIED UP IN MY ROOM!!! So I was sitting in the den working on the surprise bonvoyage site, when my housemate yells to me from the next room. Apparently, he heard the pitter patter of little footsteps and looked up in time to see some sort of large animal slink into my bedroom. (THANK GOD HE LOOKED UP!!!)
Upon further investigation we discover this possum hiding under my bed!!! Can you imagine our great surprise and barely-controlled panic!? This has to be one of the most bazaar things that has happened to me all month.

After several moments of squealing and laughing we jump on the bed with a broom and start shooing the little critter out. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a possum in real life before this, and they’re rather cute actually! Besides their
sharp protruding teeth and long rat-like tail, that is. Guillaume finally succeeded in getting it out of my bedroom (yippeeee!), only to have it take refuge in the dining room, living room, and den! So we chased the little sucker around the house for about ten minutes before the poor little guy decided he’d had enough and made a leisurely exit out the french doors. Can you believe this?!?!?! It was an absolutely outrageous night!
