Transcript:
Janis: Whimper whimper. No! NOO!!
Arlo: Wake up! You're having a nightmare!
Janis: You used to be gentler.
Arlo: That was before I knew you dream about lizards!
She wouldn’t like it around here. Day before yesterday and yesterday, I had to rescue two tiny baby lizards. One was in the downstairs hall bathroom lavatory, the other just inside the door after I’d gotten the paper. Finally I got up a “kit” consisting of a glass and a postcard circular. Why kill them? They eat bugs, f’gosh sakes!
Spiders in general don’t bother me, but I don’t like the big ugly ones around here that spin their webs at night, under trees and such, that I run into (hey, it’s dark) when (for example) putting out the trash. And, about 8 years ago, Georgia was invaded by brown widow spiders. Identical to black widows, just brown instead. They are EVERYWHERE.

Arlo IS being gentle.
I frequently have violent screaming nightmares.
My spouse responds by beating on me screaming “SHADDUP! SHADDUP!”
Anyhow, it awakens me.

LIzards, spiders, and anything else that eats bugs is my ally.

All creatures great and small are precious…except stable flies, black flies and mosquitoes…..Poisonous snakes are kinda creepy too….

I would have liked to have had an iguana. I would have called him “Godzilla”. Have cats, instead.

Well, that’s settled. Now, does anyone have a cure for snoring? Last night it sounded like the feral hogs had invaded.

But lizards are cool…no reason to have a nightmare.

If the sight of a lizard makes her rip her pants off, Arlo should keep one handy!

I keep having a dream about a 7 foot tall female lizard. (Don’t ask).
