It is  when I am on a sunny beach vacation a shot of tequila or two might be thrown into the mix for good measure while relaxing in the sun.  And in the evenings there is the cocktails, water and wine that like to accompany my meal. It is in the middle of the night I always end up with a friendly visit to the loo and I hate visiting the royal throne in the dark.

  I confess I need a night-light in the off-chance one of those urban legends of baby alligators and snakes lurking in the toilet are true!

Of course, the chances of this happening are slim but stranger things have happened in the past…

My husband does not find this trait endearing or quirky!

“Honey! Can you shut off the light?”

“No! I need it!”

“What do you need it for? The bathroom is two feet away!”

“I just do!”

“Why?”
” I never know where I am when I wake-up and could stub my toe! Or a spider could bite it!”

“A spider?”

“Yes! A spider! Or what if there is a snake in the toilet?”

“A Snake?”

“Yes! A Snake! It could happen!”

“Fine! Just leave it on then…”

All is fair in love in war and I think he secretly knows something could possibly sneak up from the toilet and bite him in the butt late at night too!

When was the last time you used a night-light?  Have you ever had a run in with a toilet snake?
