Look! There's a Loogie in my bedroom!

First things first - a loogie is a lizard. It is the way that my little friend Grace said lizard back in the good old days when she was my neighbor. So, the story goes: It was just a regular day. Great weather and a nice start to my day with a run. When I returned from my run I was back in my bedroom by the window and I met this little guy:


What was I to do? He wasn't hurting anything. He was just a simple loogie trying to find his way in the world. Besides, I think he looked good on the piano don't you? I thought about doing the catch and release thing, but really needed to get going. So, I went about my business and took a shower and got ready. During my get ready process I found him exploring a little bit!


He moved up to the wall by my piano! Later he even moved up higher and was by a picture we have way up close to the ceiling. I couldn't get a picture of that because at this point the Loogie was making me late! So the Loogie and I made a peace treaty. I agreed to not try to catch him if he agreed to help me out with my mosquito problem! I haven't seen him since - maybe he made a break for it when he found out I have a mosquito problem! Can you blame him!?

mosquitos?! no good. If he is anything like the good little loogie you are making him out to be, he got on the problem right away!

"Loogie." That's funny.

Oh.. the poor little loogie couldn't get out to saftey. I'm glad that you're allowing him to stay with you. He can be the guy on the couch until he's finally enticed enough to get a job to help pay the mortgage down. In the meantime, he better watch out for Charlie and Chester. I have seen many loogie's in the past with missing tails.. hehe

I hope he's earning his keep or that he's long gone!
