I'm walking to my kitchen for coffee and here sits a baby frog on my floor. And I am barefoot! I go running for something to catch him in and grab a plastic bowl and a paper towel. SLAM this bowl down over him and slide him gently over the paper towel. (He doesn't move much so I figured he was sleeping.)
I take him outside to set him free, turn the bowl over and out falls a LEAF! A stupid brown leaf.

When I tended bar the guys used to drive me nuts. They'd bring their dog in for a minute until I'd yell at them and then they'd lay plastic poop on the floor for me to stroke over. And plastic puke in the urnial and on the end of the bar.
One rode a motorcycle in the front door and out the back. One brought his horse in the bar. One time they carried this big old fish in the bar and thru it in my sink. I went to wash glasses and about flipped out. Always something. Good thing I always had a strong heart.

That's HYSTERICAL!!
I feel your pain, Hobbs. I don't know how many times I've flown into a panic thinking I'm about to be eaten by a HUGE bug... that turns out to be a piece of fuzz.

Last week while we were on vacation, I was barely awake and working on getting the boy's breakfast ready. My husband came up behind me at the sink just as I caught sight of a huge spider on my arm and freaked out, flinging a cup full of soapy water onto my poor husband... then realized it was just a tangle of loose thread dangling from the sleeve of my shirt. Oops.
I'm not old enough to have deteriorating eyesight as an excuse, either!

Just to let you all know, I really did see something alive after this. I was walking to the store and a squirrel come tearing across the road 300 miles an hour and ran over my tennis shoe! I was not about to chase him down with my bowl and paper towel!!!!!
OK Sailor! I'm on my way to my pine cone hunt!!!!!!!! LOLOLOL
BirdofPray...........another LOLOL Was he expecting a kiss?

Did you at least admonish them for over stocking your sink?
