Dead mouse, moral lesson

The other morning I noticed there was a dead mouse in our yard right by the door, and I didn’t feel like dealing with it, and Dr. Mrs. Q didn’t feel like dealing with it, and that night we didn’t feel like dealing with it either, and we said, knowing we were just procrastinating, “well maybe some animal will carry it off in the night but if not we’ll deal with it in the morning.” But some animal did carry it off in the night. I was happy not to have to bag and trash a dead mouse, but also felt it was bad for my moral constitution for my procrastination to have been rewarded in this way.
