The Lizard and I

I had a small intruder slip into my apartment over the last weekend. It was a little brown garden lizard, the variety commonly known as a skink or, more precisely, a Lampropholis Guichenoti.
I was fixing my breakfast when suddenly, the little creature sprinted out from under the fridge and scared the bejesus out of me. At first I just saw a dashing blur but then it stopped abruptly and I could see the tiny reptile very clearly. I was relieved but when I tried to catch it and return it to the yard, the diminutive dickens ran out on me and hid somewhere else.  The lizard remained nowhere to be found until this morning when I saw it again on the carpet beside my desk, just lying there, motionless. I slowly grabbed a small Tupperware container and trapped it with a swift move.  The lizard is now back in its natural habitat at the backyard, however I still wonder where the devil did he get in here in the first place since I live on a third floor!
