When we got home I saw a gecko running up the wall. I don't like to miss an opportunity so I chased after it. But this was a wriggler. It fell a few times, but I didn't give up until things got freaky. All of a sudden, the gecko was in two parts; the tail wriggling around on the floor and the body flying across the hallway. (I was so freaked out that I may have thrown the found the gecko as far away as possible). Naturally, I called my dad, who I think was in an Elders meeting, to find out if the tailless lizard would die. He assured me that it would not, so, conscience salved, I spend a good while playing with the detached tail. It was a bit gross but very fun. And out of interest, the gecko did die that night, but probably due to injuries sustained from a high velocity impact.
Before I go, here is a picture of the street kids that are involved with the Vivante ministry. They are the ones we cook for every Friday.
