Dammit!

Damn I am pissed!

I had some things to do in the garage today, so I was in and out the door to the garage several times. There is a wooden pallet laying nearby that we often have a small fence lizard laying out there so I am always on the lookout for him. Although I looked for him, didn't see him out on the pallet, but it was kind of chilly, so I wasn't much surprised he wasn't out and about.

Well, I was heading over to the garage to put away some gloves I used outside, and I saw the little fence lizard laying belly up on the carpet in front of the door. WTH??? Apparently I had obviously stepped on him. Damn.... I don't know how I missed seeing him, as I know I was looking at some pine needles at the doorway that I needed to brush outside. I was just shocked.

I feel just rotten...... I want to punch something, HARD. Like my own jaw. I am so angry at myself for not SEEING him.

Now, every time I walk in or out of that garage door, I am going to see his lifeless body laying in my hand.

Dammit......

Oh no, I'm sorry Rich.

Don't feel bad. Every time we have a cold spell I find dead anoles and spiny-tailed iguanas in my area. Makes me want to bring them all into the house, but you know how feasible that is.

Ugh, that's awful. Whenever I'm working with or around very small animals, I always worry about stepping on something accidentally.
