Lizard Attack!
Or, An Early Morning Visitor
in my San Diego Apartment
Lizard in the bathroom 01

I had just woken up and was heading to the bathroom. I didn't have my glasses on. Then I saw this line on my floor. "A lizard in the bathroom 04snake!," I screamed to my friend on the phone. "Wait, no, a lizard."

I'm perfectly fine with amphibians, but reptiles weird me out. Snakes scare me and lizards look a lot like snakes.

But this guy was friendly. I put him in a box and let him go outside.

My roommate and I haven't been able to identify him, but we think he's may be a "western fence lizard." Any lizard experts out there?

That's a skink, but I'm not sure which type. Not a western fence lizard, they look more like bearded dragons.
