I came home from school and Dan hadn't waited for me

"My mom recorded Heros for us."
"Well I watched it! Do you want me to tell you what happened?"
"No! Don't tell me! Well, unless it's not worth watching. Is it worth watching?"
"Do you want me to tell you?"
"No! Yes! I mean... Okay, well, just tell me who Claire's father is."
"Do you really want to know?"
"I don't! I mean i do! Okay, so just tell me: is her real father her fake father? Are they the same person? Wait! Don't tell me!!! Okay do tell me... i'll hold my breath..."
"No."
"Phew! That's a relief!"
"Do you want me to tell you who her father IS?"
"No!!! I want to watch it. Wait, do you want to tell me? ... You really want to tell me don't you?"
"It's Nathan Patrelli."
"NATHAN PATRELLI!!!!! Seriously?"
"Nathan Patrelli."
"Wow. I gotta go watch that episode."
"No, that's the only interesting thing that happened."

Stopping by a Mouse Hole on a Snowy Evening, by Rascal Archibald

Whose den this is, I think I know
I caught his scent three yards ago
Heíll not suspect my sneak attack
Burrowed beneath his house of snow.

My mommy seems to think itís queer
To hunt when sunset is so near
She doesnít know Iím bout to catch
The tastiest mousey of the year.

Earth clods and leaves fly everywhere
Mom gives a call, and I despair
Heís nowhere to be seen! The rat!
Heís gone, his tunnel now laid bare.

Your hole is fragrant, dark and deep,
But mommy pulls me by the leash.
And I have kibble left to eat.
And squirrels to catch before I sleep.
