Hoping I find a mouse in the trap when I get home today.

Last night my wife realized she married a 12 year old stuck inside a 24 year old's body...
I had some steaks I ordered from Omaha Steaks arrive, and had a big block of dry ice that was packed with the meat. When my wife arrived home she walked in the house and asked, "Why is there ice in that big empty plastic tub, sitting in the driveway?"
"Oh," I replied, "That's some dry ice that came with the steaks. I've always heard that dry ice will explode when it's put in water, so I filled the tub and dumped in some ice. It sat there for awhile, bubbled like crazy, but obviously didn't blow up. Looks like I need to seal it if I want it to build up enough pressure to explode."
A short while later I was grilling up some burgers for dinner. When I came into the house with the food she (my wife) asked what I was doing with the shovel while grilling. I laughed. "Well, I got bored with the ice in the tub so I decided to take it out. But you can't touch dry ice with your bare hands, so I used the shovel to scoop it out. I put one big chunk over on that big anthill, to see if I could kill a bunch of the ants. I then put the other big chunk on top of that weed that keeps growing through the drack in the pavement, to see if I could freeze it to death."
My wife looked down, shook her head, and muttered to herself.
