I kind of got in trouble last night. Oh alright, I got in BIG trouble last night. Mom was on her bed working on her laptop, Ginger was laying by her feet, Piper was sitting next to Mom talking and I was sitting on Pipers knee. Since Ginger likes to toss things off Moms bed there was a pile of pillows on the floor in front of the dresser. I figured I was due for a bit of fun so I carefully gauged the distance, made ready and launched myself onto the pillows - WaaaHoooooo!!! It was a beautiful leap and great fun indeed! Pip was pretty angry at me so I did what any body who was in trouble do - I ran!!! Straight under Moms dresser. Well, that made Pip even more angry cuz she couldn't reach me - ha! Ha! Here was the biggest problem. Toads, as you know are only slimy when they shed. As you also know it can take more than a day to complete the process. I had been shedding and was still gooey when I went under there. I didn't know this when I ran under there, but Humans keep all the lint and fuzz and extra dog hairs under their dressers. I was quickly covered in fuzz. I tried to wipe it off my face but just succeeded in smearing more all around. I wanted to come out but Pip was laying there waiting for me with her mad face on. Mom was pretty chill about it. She kept telling Pip I'd come out eventually. "Mom it's dangerous under there!! What if she eats something? There could be bugs under there!" I wish I could've seen Moms face on that one. "Sweetie, Buntah eats bugs. She'll be fine." Piper kept on fussing till Mom couldn't stand it anymore. (Mom lets me wander around her bathroom, she knows I always come out.) Next thing I know Piper is sliding the Cricket Keeper into view right next to her face. CRICKETS!!! Dirty trick ladies. I had to cave for the crickets. I came out and Piper grabbed me. She scolded me but good, or at least she tried. As soon as she picked me up she went, "oooooooooooooo" making her oogly schmoogly sappy face. Apparently she thought I was pretty adorable covered in fluff balls and fuzzy stuff. Mom thought so too. They called me a Poad-dle, cross between a poodle and a toad. Please ladies, scold me if you want, but do not insult me by comparing me to a poodle. I had a got a nice long swim afterward. Mom sat with me and played withe me for a long time.
