Sammy, my pet lizard(S)

One of the biggest accomplishments of my service has definitely been training the lizards to stay out of my room. It took about a week for me to get accustommed to having random things crawl, jump and scamper across the walls, floors and windows but once I did...they actually became more like companions. A sign of life in my apartment other than just myself. Anyway, I was cool with cohabiting with them everywhere except my bedroom. I just felt a boundary needed to be set. Every once in awhile a newbie made its way back to my room but otherwise, I will say we developed a mutual understanding.

I can't say that I will miss these little guys, but it's been real.
