My father got up early one morning, and wandered down to the bathroom to 
begin getting ready for work. Along the way, he narrowly avoided a lump in 
the darkened hall that looked suspiciously like the dog had made a mess. He 
went to the bathroom to get toilet paper to clean it up--and the lump had 
moved. Flipping on the light revealed a rather large toad--we're still not 
sure how it got into the house, or escaped the cats. Dad put the toad 
outside, apologized to the dog, and went to get ready for work, feeling very 
glad he had NOT stepped on the lump!
