My Mother and Her Squirrel


I recieved a call from my mother the other night that went like this:

Mom: Is your husband home?

Me: No. He just left work and is on his way home.

Mom: Oh. (pause) So, how do you feel about squirrels?

Me: (pause) They are okay I guess ... why?

Mom: I have one in my living room.

Me: How are you going to get it out?

Mom: I thought you could come over for moral support!

Me: Where is your son?

Mom: Can you just come over?

Me: Yeeesssss.

Mom: Bring a broom.

Me: Would you like me to bring Jimmy's safety goggles?

Mom: Don't be a smart ass.

Me: Can't help it.

Mom: Hurry up, I'm sitting here with the door wide open with my coat and hood on.

Me: Why the hood?

Mom: In case he attacks my head

Me: LAUGH!

Mom: Oh shut up!

Me: I'll be right over.

P.S. No squirrels were harmed in this story, this little guy managed to make his escape through an open window!
