Okay, first I put a flower pot over it, got my mom to show her, and then I picked it up and put it in the impromptu pond that formed in the neighbor's backyard because of all the pouring, drenching, incessant rain we've been having.
No, I don't have pics to prove it.
But I can show you want kind of toad it was:
Very toad-like, no? Warts and all.

Anyway. Just a bit of odd stuff I wanted to post.
Now for the stuff you really want to know.
I was awarded by Canyon Girl at Desert Canyon Living:
Thank you so much, Canyon Girl!
. . . and I was also awarded either the Versatile Blogger Award or the Blog On Fire Award by Trisha at W O R D + S T U F F, and since I've never seen the latter before, I chose that one:
Thanks, Trisha! :)
And I award this one to:
Sarah at Glissades and Gabble (for cool posts--and an awesome title. I love dancing!)
Amanda the Aspiring at Truth, Justice, And Other Stuff (for excellent writing posts)
L. G. Smith at Bards and Prophets (for posts on everything including faint-worthy bookstores. I want to go to Buenos Aires. Like, immediately)
M Pax at Wistful Nebulae (for fascinating science information)
Karla at The Writing Pad (for great writing/life posts. And I adore the title of her blog, for some reason. Don't know exactly why.)
Jai Joshi at Jai Joshi's Tulsi Tree (for awesome vlog posts on the Mahabharat--I can say it right! I think--and her book)
I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to award 15 or something like that (isn't that usually the case?) but I'm just going to leave it here, okay? Good.

Also, I wanted to thank all of those who did for commenting on my last post! I didn't expect to get 41 people to come by and respond--with pretty long responses, too! Awesome. I guess liking/not liking main characters in the books people read is more important than I had assumed.

Hope you're all have a great Memorial Day Weekend! If you live in the USA. If you don't, I hope you're having a great non-holiday weekend!
