Woke up this morning to discover that apparently my engineer housemates have been working on non-approved projects in their spare time. A nanotech-powered robot mouse was crawling around my room, which I realized when I almost stepped on it.

Instead of squeaking, it beeps.

I kidnapped it and have been teaching it to imitate the various ring patterns in my cell phone's memory. I have hopes of moving on to actual modulated sounds next, via songs, and eventually reaching true conversation.

I think I'll name it Gidget. Unless, of course, it objects. :-)

What song will you teach it first?

My husband started the kids off on "The Lumberjack Song." I wonder if it's as cute being beeped by a mouse as being lisped by a three-year old?
