Maybe there's a little Toad in all of us...

... or maybe just me. I read this line from "Wind in the Willows" and it made me think of myself.
"and Toad, with no one to check his statements or to criticise in an unfriendly spirit, rather let himself go. Indeed, much that he related belonged more properly to the category of what-might-have-happened-had-I-only-thought-of-it-in time-instead-of-ten-minutes-afterwards. Those are always the best and the raciest adventures; and why should they not be truly ours, as much as the somewhat inadequate things that really come off?"

And if you know me, you know it's true.
