I like lizards but I don't like them in my shirt

[agnes]

We have a ton of lizards in our backyard and front yard. Occasionally one will get in the house.

I am the designated lizard remover. villageidiot is afraid of them like I am of spiders.

There was a lizard on the window screen (on the outside) but H was flipping out. "Get that thing or I'm gunna smash it!" Hulk SMASH!

So I go out and try to get it off but it just keeps getting high and higher until my arms almost straight up in the air. Finally the little guy scurries onto my hand.

Success!

Nope. It keeps running. Falls off of my hand and onto my shirt, right in to the fabric flowers (see today's OOTD). I try to quickly grab it, but I am no match. It proceeds to run over my shoulder and down the back of my shirt.

I'm screaming in laughter like a mad woman yelling for my MIL to come get it out. "It tickles! Get it out! AHHHHAHAHAHHH!"

MIL helped me get my shirt off and I returned the lizard to it's rightful place. No where near the house.

Holy crap, no! Lol. I like lizards, but not in my clothes.

This reminds me, remember the Gecko clothes that were popular in the 80s? Haha I remember my brother having a pair of pants and a couple of those shirts.

[agnes]

Ha no I do not remember Gecko. We did wear a lot of hypercolor, though.

I would have FREAKED.  I would srsly be crying if that happened.

Those look familiar polka! My dad wore these bad boys

Crazy parachute pants with dead fish on them are the JAM.

agnes is more afraid of spiders than I am of lizards...... She won't smash a spider, I will smash a lizard. They creep me out, I dunno, it's gotta be something residual from when I was a kid.

[bonquiqui]

No just no

[open24hours]

I can deal with lizards. They were always getting into my house as a kid and I was fine with running around my room. But, there is no way in hell I would be okay with one scurrying around in my clothes.

I love lizards and keep one as a pet (see sig). I also have a large green one up in my front garden that loves when I spray him with the hose

Years ago I caught 2 tree frogs in our (old) yard.  I had them for a long time until I accidentally killed them by overheating their terrarium. RIP Gnarly and Squirt.

I use to be cool with lizards. But my phobia of snakes is starting to trickle over to all reptiles. If a lizard fell down my shirt. I would probably stroke out.
