Amphibian affection
One of the big (secret)bonuses of being a real estate agent is going into so many houses, and seeing how people really live. I’ve seen some unusual pets, but I hadn’t seen a frog in somebody’s livingroom before. She said it was two years old, and had arrived as a tadpole you could see right through.
I moved up close for a better look.
“Kiss me” it said, “I am a frog prince.”
“Uh, sorry,” I whispered. “Not today.” A talking frog.
“Lick me then.” the frog continued, “I send colors you can hear, and sounds you can see.”
“Hmmmm,” with wrinkled brow as I looked it in the eye, “Gonna have to pass on that. Hey, isn’t that whole licking thing about toads, not frogs?”
The frog spoke no further.
