An hour before dawn, whose footsteps are those on the hard crust of snow, first tiptoeing, then running about? Mice, I think. No: sleet.

I instantly remember how it feels when I am in interperation confusion:
-is the sun shining extra bright or is that car on fire?
-is that a star, a plane or Skylab?
-did I hear a plastic bag unwrinkling or is that a mouse in my shoe closet?
Evocative!
Thanks. I love your last example in particular — plastic is sneaky!
