The young man writes as he speaks, with complete honesty and lack of pretension. So good to hear his family home's heat is fixed. Furnaces so often break down during the coldest weather. As for his problem with a mouse, as a person growing up in the cold north of the country, we always had a mouse or two (or three) every winter. They sneak in under doors or in foundation cracks. It is very common in colder climes. Just check the hardware stores, every one of them sells mousetraps. And a bureau not disturbed for several weeks or longer would be ideal for nesting. Poor David lost his memory drawer, but he seems like such a positive person, he is able to turn even this into a positive opportunity to clean his drawer out. His family has to be wonderful to have turned out such a superior young man. What a wonderful blog. The young man writes as he speaks, with complete honesty and lack of pretension.

Despite the fact that I was a teenager at the time, I was actually kind of sad when it was over.

I don't know the whole story, but it's not an unkempt thing or a neglect thing or anything. I hear their house is actually quite beautiful. And there are cockroaches in my house. We can't help it--just the area we live (Hawaii; former sub-tropical rain forest). No amount of bug spray will kill them all during certain times of the year. And centipedes (one of which crawled into my bed at night and bit me on the foot--dang, that hurt). In Texas you get those black crickets that infest everywhere during the hot months. I hated them when I went to school there. I know you weren't insinuating uncleanliness Autumn, but sometimes words don't translate well in written form. Leads to misunderstandings. As far as I'm aware, though, David doesn't have a breathing problem. He has audible breath because of his vocal chord problem, but he breathes just fine and actually has really great breath control when singing.

I never said that or hinted at that. But there is NEVER just 1 mouse, where you find one there are others! I am glad the heat situation is resolved, Utah is not a place to let something like that go with the extreme cold they have.
