I Hate Lizards
Lizards freak me out, and I don’t understand why it’s so hard for me to overcome my fear.
I accidentally touched a lizard in the middle of the night when I was younger. That stupid lizard was at the door knob of my room, and I was going to the toilet late at night. Even with the lights on, I was walking half asleep towards the door and put my hand on the knob, without realizing the lizard. Yaks, its slippery cold body gave me a fright and woke me up! I touched snakes, tortoises, iguanas, and other reptiles before, but I hate the feeling of touching lizards. If I see anyone holding a lizard on his hand, I’ll flea out of the room ASAP.
There’s another incident which happenned to me when I was pregnant. There’s a big lizard which stays under the “dish roller” which is placed on dining table. I don’t know what’s the thing called, you know, when you eat at restaurant, they’ll place the dishes on this round thing that you can turn to get the food? What’s that called?
Anyway, that lizard stays under it for years already. Sometimes, it’ll come out and run across the table, jump down to the floor and disappear. I remembered that day I was having meals with the family, then hubby suddenly shouted “Lizard!” and all I did was jumped up and stood on my chair immediately! I didn’t realized I was heavily pregnant, but my natural reflex had make me jump right up!
Then, I don’t understand why God has to create lizards to break their tails when they’re in danger to distract attention. Why can’t they break their heads? I’m getting cruel already. When I was young, those old folks lied to me that the tail will jump into my ear if I go near. I know that’s impossible, but it’s “geli” looking at it bouncing and bouncing and bouncing.
When I was busy reading blogs the other night, I saw a huge lizard in my study room. It’s bigger than the large tube of tooth paste, and with spots on its body. I can feel my “moh koon chang”, when I saw it standing on the wall. Luckily, it went and hide itself after that. I asked hubby if he has seen it before, he said he saw that big lizard a few times already. So I asked him why don’t he catch or kill it! He said it’s too big, he also scare of touching it. Hai, 2 cowards afraid of lizards, what to do? Live with them loh…

my house got a lot lizards, I hate them so much until I really don’t know what to do with it, and if I want to complain about those lizards, I guess I can write a blog, ah, no, book about it.
imagine always “sao si” (collect corpse) for it.
