Unwanted Guest

Here's a quick little story that just happened, and a perfect example of 'Be careful what you wish for'. I wanted something new... and I got it.

So just a little while I go, I got up to use the washroom. I walked into my very small bathroom, flicked on the light and shut the door. My family was asleep, the house was quiet and I was already a bit drowsy, but still very at ease and comfortable, as I think I should be when going using the facilities. I was all good to go, standing as to be expected when considering my gender, just about to drain the main vein, when all of a sudden a friggen LIZARD  falls from the ceiling and slams into my shoulder, quickly jumps off my shoulder to the floor, and upon hitting which, scurries off into a corner. It took absolutely everything I had in me to not shout out in shock and pee all over the bathroom. Now, I don't know about you, but I have never had another living creature dive bomb me while just prior to cracking the taps, and I didn't really like it. It was quite unsettling! It scared the dickens out of me. Needless to say, I will forever more do a thorough check of my surroundings before conceding to the porcelain throne for either a number 1 or 2.

Well there ya have it, a little bit of insight into the slightly more personal side of my life here in Thailand, hope you had a bit of a chuckle if nothing else!

Much love,
William Cole
