Come home tonight after work and having dinner out with her. AS we pull into the carport I'm like, "remember that rat nest I found under D's (house in front and also our landlord) house at the carport. I can show you." I park directly in front of the entrance to the den which is under D's house (his house is ~3' up on stilts. Get out of car with headlights on and hae her look through the wood slats at the pile of dirt they've dug out from under the carport slab. she's see's how large it is.. Mention how the one under house house is just as large..
She "Still doing the traps?"
me "some what but they aren't as effective anymore as the rats are getting smarter so I've been shooting them."
she "

What?!"
me "two neighbors were shooting them so I cleared it with D and bought a pellet rifle. He loved the idea and is thinking of getting one too."
her "omg.. what do you do with the bodies??"
me "same thing as trapped if they are on land."
her "the stuff you do when I'm away"
later I had gone out to hunt while she was in the shower. Forgot and left a pellet on a shelf by the patio door - next to the Buddha statue. oops
later " wth hell rob?!. This does NOT belong by Buddha. You'd better start thinking about your karma. What if you come back as a rat?"
