Don't let the picture fool you, this thing is HUGE!We have geckos here. We normally see them outside on our porch, small little things dashing out of sight, only several inches long. Once we saw one in our bathroom, again, fairly small. I don't mind them, although I don't exactly prefer them in my bathroom. They are harmless (right?) and eat various insects, so aside from occasionally startling you as they scurry away, no big deal. At least, that's what I used to think. Now I'm not so sure. I was just in the middle of writing an email and felt the need for a glass of water. As I was walking into the kitchen, what darted before my feet but this huge monstrous beast of a gecko! So what did I so? I screamed. Lucky for me, Shauen was out of the house at a meeting so there was only the gecko to scare with my scream. It immediately darted for cover behind a shopping bag (where it currently remains, I'm not sure I how I am going to encourage it to leave). As I calmed down, I realized that it was only a larger-than-normal gecko (maybe 8 inches or so) and that I might have over reacted a wee bit. However, when something large and dark slithers unexpectedly across your path, right where you are about to place your bare foot, I think it is perfectly acceptable to scream.  -Krista
