Some Unexpected Creative Input

One of the nice things about living where I do is that my patio is basically an extension of my house, and in fact it's my favourite place to work -- peaceful, lush and green, and plenty of birds and other little critters running around to entertain me. There's a trellis that runs over the patio, and the lizards like to skitter back and forth up there along the beams like it's their own personal freeway system. They're amazingly agile, and very skilled at jumping from beam to beam.

Not this time though -- I had just sat back from my computer to review the project I was working on when all of a sudden one of them lost his footing and landed plop! smack dab on my keyboard. I'm not sure which one of us was more surprised!

Dusty little fella, wasn't he?
