Remember that little guy pictured above? I found him outside my front door. And I liked him.

 

Cut to yesterday. I walked into the kitchen and there on the rug was a 4-inch version of that outside lizard dude. I did not like him so much.

 

I stood there a minute or two, trying to figure out what to do. I was next to a cupboard with pie tins, so I grabbed one and went after the little dude. He was super fast, I tell you! But I was faster. Or bigger. Or something. Anyhoo, I managed to get the pie tin over him. Then I slid an empty, flattened cereal box beneath the pie tin and lifted the whole she-bang. I walked straight out the front door and let that lizard dude loose on the grass.

 

Maybe he’ll grow up big and strong like that little guy above. Maybe he’ll hang outside the front door, too. I’m cool with that. But for cry-eye, please don’t let him sneak back in the house. I nearly had a spell!
