LITTLE LIZARD!We've seen these little guys all around our house. Last spring and summer they'd often be found around the front door, sunbathing on the doorstep and even the doorknob. So my thinking is that he stowed away in my car at some point that morning {or even the night before} and was just hanging out the whole day until I disturbed his little vacation with my OCD cleaning spree. Funny thing is that my life partner Andrea was sitting in the passenger seat of my car before dance eating lunch. I'm thankful that he didn't scurry across her foot mid conversation. That would have been fun.So, I kept an eye on him for the remainder of the drive home, more worried that he would come over to my side of the floorboard and get squished.
Once I got home it was time for a quick photo shoot where I snagged these shots followed by about 5 minutes of me trying to catch him and return him to the great outdoors. His attempts at avoiding my grasp took him on a path from the front passenger seat to the back passenger seat, over the median to the back driver's side and up to where my feet would have been if I weren't sprawled across the entire interior of my car. I finally cornered him up underneath the petals when he took a running start and an Evil Kenevil leap out the door. He was fine and scurried away to tell his lizard friends of his great adventure.I know many people aren't big reptile fans, but I think he's pretty darn cute. Getting into my car for the past two days I've scanned the floor to check if he stowed away again. Not seeing him there today made me kind of sad.What the hell is wrong with me?Until next time...Have you ever found any uninvited guests/critters in your car or home?
