Oh, and my wife never ever
never ever goes to the potty without turning on the lights and

wanted that small ceremic squirrel to sit on the top of the tank
though.


You gotta get one of these:

Your wife will be ever so, um, 'grateful' is not the exact word
I'm looking
for...


Hey, my mama didn't raise any fools. I am not about to give that to
her, I value my life too much. Now, should I tell you about the
little green frog that she keeps on the tank as well? There are real
advantages to standing when you pee!


They are a totem to protect the person owning them from invasion from
the animal that it represents.
;-)


Try replacing the frog with a plastic frog and tie it to the seat so
that when she sets down it jumps at her from behind.


I don't need to do that because that is almost exactly what happened.
We lived in a neighborhood that was cut out of dense forest and tree
frogs were very plentiful. They would show up all over the place.
One night my wife got up in the middle of the night to go to the
bathroom. There was a small night light in the bathroom so she didn't
turn on the overhead light and sit down on the toilet. A few seconds
later, she woke the entire house with a ear piercing scream. A small
tree frog had come through the sewer line and hidden under the rim of
the toilet. When she sit down and started her thing, it apparently
decided to jump and landed on her bottom. The VERY NEXT MORNING I had
to skip work and get some wire screens to put over the sewer vents.
About a week later, the little plastic frog showed up on the back of
the tank. At least she does have a sense of humor about the event.


Just a little something about tree frogs.
I used to keep one in the house as a pet.
They will come into the house by way of the front door next to the
door light.
They hang out there hunting bugs, and sometimes jump into the house to
explore a new hunting ground.
Then when they start drying out, they go to the best water source that
they can find.
The toilet, due to it’s large pool size and the fact that it is not
used as much as the sink and is not visible from where the people hang
out.

Thus, the screen may not solve the problem.


SHHHHHHH, don't you ever tell my wife that.

I don't know how my wife does it but she finds every little critter
that manages to get into the house. Not only does she spot every tree
frong but those little lizards that manage to slip in are in great
danger from her. Where we live now there are no tree frogs but the
small almost clear baby lizards get in all the time and she finds
every last one of them. She finds and I have to remove because she
won't touch them...even the little baby ones.

you need a cat. she'd never see them again.
