Funny story. When I was leaving my bungalow yesterday morning, just as I was opening my screen door, something landed on my head. I of course freaked out and danced all around for fear that it was an Indian spider (which are the size of Texas) or worse, a snake. I don’t find anything so tell myself it was nothing and try to calm down. Then, the lizard that was apparently chilling in my hair somewhere runs down the middle of my face and leaps to the floor. Ahhh! I tried to catch him but now he’s lost in our room somewhere which is really unfortunate. Anyways, what makes this even better is when I got to work I told Madame Riberisch about it and she says, “like the king, in the movie, with the lizard on his crown that dances!” and she starts laughing hysterically, and singing “I like to move it, move it.” I couldn’t contain myself. Whitney I thought of you and thought you might appreciate this as much as I did :)
