Description I'm sure we've all had this happen...right?

------------

Fooling around with character designs, mostly, and the line "The days when it rained mice were the worst" had been sitting on a note on my desktop for awhile. The two just kinda went together...

I take it the cats and dogs were overrun by the mice.

I love the mouse bouncing off her umbrella.

I fully agree on the mouse factor, for some reason even the cats are not a deterrent to them this summer.

Really funny, I like it.

Now it could be that I've been at work dealing with rank customers all day and not really slept in a few days, but I giggled like a madwoman when I read this.

Sentences are fun.

She's really adorable. I like the hair, the outfit, and the "oh darn, it's raining mice again" facial expression.

Addendum: If I could sum up in one sentence exactly what I like so much about your style, it would be this: Ursula Vernon draws "oh darn, it's raining mice again" facial expressions excellently.

...according to paranormal investigators Charles Fort and Jerome Clark, this would qualify as a "Fall" of animate objects. Stange as it sounds, falls of this nature are not entirely uncommon (some have even been documented on video... not mice per se, but other critters such as frogs or fish).

You always get a laugh out of me. The mice are great and her expression is fabulous.
