Oh, definitely bats. I'm a wimp when it comes to either one, but bats are worse because they make that NOISE. And besides, they're basically flying mice. When I lived in Va., we had a bat in the basement one night. I was too freaked out to get near it, so my mom trapped it with an empty Coors Light case. No wonder I had problems getting to sleep in that basement bedroom.
Jeez, the more I write in this journal the trashier I come off! It probably wouldn't help to mention that I once found a rat in the toilet bowl in one of my apartments. I guess he came up through the pipes! I was the only one home and heard splashing from the bathroom, went in there, and saw the bastard was flailing around like mad in there. I tried to flush him, but he was too strong a swimmer, so I somehow managed to get him in the wastebasket with the help of a plunger and threw his wet ass out in the yard. I don't think I ever sat down in that bathroom again without taking about three or four good looks first.
