California Toilet Frog

I recently received a chain letter email that warned against a deadly spider, the dangerous arachnius gluteus, that hides under public toilet seats. One bite on the tush can lead to fever, chills, and vomiting, followed by muscular collapse, paralysis, and finally, death. Fortunately the arachnius gluteus is fiction. But on our trip to LA we discovered the California Toilet Frog. We drove up the Ortega Highway on our way home and stopped at a horse camp. There was a public restroom there with flush toilets. While I was using their restroom, this frog jumped out of the toilet bowl. At first I thought it was a rat and screamed. Kelly was in the next stall frantically asking me what was happening. Upon realizing it was just a frog I finished up and quickly got out of there. Turns out he's quite cute but he sure gave me a fright!
