There is a little story behind this picture.  It was around midnight.  I had gone to the bathroom to pee.  I am done and I turn to flush the toilet…

And, this is the site that greets me.

Now, in this picture you can obviously tell two things… it is fake and I need to sweep my floor.  But, when it is midnight and you don’t have your glasses on or the light turned all the way up…

It looked real.

Why would a turtle be in my bathroom, you might ask?  I have had a centipede the thickness of three of my fingers… a turtle really isn’t beyond the realm of possibility.

I proceeded to kick at it to see what would happen.

It didn’t move thank God.

I then realized that it was a bathtub toy.

The hubs thought it was funny.

I didn’t.

  1. ooh i so feel ya– those midnight eyes can have convinced me many a toy was some strangely real, and not very likely, intruder of sorts. =)

    Aloha,

  2. That happened to me last week but it wasn’t in my home and it was in the morning at my client’s house. We train in her basement and I went down first and when I turned the corner to the workout room, I screamed. Her husband has a life size cutout of Captain Pickard from Star Trek the next generation and it was standing on the treadmill. We both had a good life that morning. BTW, I’m a twin also, I have a fraternal twin sister.

  3. Oh goodness! Totally been there! At night, half asleep, is also not a great time to see a spider. I can’t stand them, and when it’s night you’re supposed to be quiet. How do I be quiet when I see a spider in my house? Especially if it’s anywhere near me? Not possible! Thanks for the laugh! (I hope you can laugh now.) 🙂
