Well, Mom would feel better if it was a skink. Can't say I've seen a five-lined skink before. We get those blue ones all the time. They like to live in the garage.
I was trying to see if those Anise were male and female and maybe I needed more than one or something. But I can't find anything that says that. Maybe I've been missing the flowers but they are red and I hear they have a particular odor so I figured someone would have noticed them in all these years. I feel like yelling at it, "What do you want from me?"
