Toad, not frog. Way different! They have a personality for one!

When I was a kid, I had toads, and (why??) I used to pretend they were jumping horses, and I would build these courses for them and have competitions...They were always very cooperative.

When I was a kid, pretty much anything I came in contact with had the potential to be an imaginary horse: my poodle for instance. But nothing can beat my cousins in Texas, who made believe cockroaches were horses and built little harnesses for them, and made them pull little matchbox wagons.

Wouldn't life have been simpler if our parents had just provided real horses?

Oops, I drifted.
