Rats! In Brooklyn! Also Trey’s mom adopted a Raccoon NaBloPoMo Day 5

 Aimee’s car wouldn’t start. It also stank. Turns out rats chewed ate every wire in the entire engine. It cost $12,000 to get fixed. Good news is insurance paid for it. Also good news the mechanic in Brooklyn was super familiar with the problem. He’d seen it before. Seen it before enough to know that the rats love the wires in Hondas, Toyotas and Hundais especially. These three are like the Neapolitan of car wires.  For rats. 

We also heard about Trey’s mom who rehabbed a raccoon and this raccoon, Beauregard, lived with her for 18 years. He would hang out and swing around on the curtains. He had his own jar of jam in the fridge. Beau would open up the fridge and open up the fridge with his opposable thumbs and stick his paw in the jam and lick it off. Then he’d go wash shells in a bin full of water like it was his job. 

Anyway. We had a great time at Danielle and Nicks.  Not sure why we talked about rodents for a hour
