I think there's a lizard in my PC.

Long story short, I wake up today, roll out of bed and notice something crawling on the floor. I look down to see a small blue-tailed lizard stop and rest there for a second. I've got nothing against lizards, but I prefer them to be outside my house. I go over to grab him and he runs behind my PC. I pull it aside and... no lizard. I really don't know where else he could have gone. The openings in the back seem big enough for him to squeeze into.

This isn't the first time I've seen the lizard. A few days ago he was crawling around my living room. Now he's just mocking me. I'm about to open up my PC and try to lure him out... How do you lure a lizard anyway? (Don't say pizza)

Maybe he's trying to figure out how to save you 15% in 15 min.

If you start your PC, it will probably get cut in pieces by the fans after it ran all over the place with all the noise scaring him.

After opening it up, he doesn't appear to be anywhere inside. Unless he's really hidden, and really stoic to movement/loud noise. So, now I have to find wherever the hell he went. I'll update if he shows up again. God! I hate this freakin' lizard

You better make damn sure you find it before night time. Blue tailed lizards are known for crawling inside people's anuses when they are asleep to make their nests in there.

Set all fans to minimum, cover the case with a blanket and start running some CPU/GPU intensive benchmark programs.

Long story short, I wake up today, go for a quick run across the floor, and notice something lumbering toward me. I look up to see an large, groggy human stop and stare at me for a second. I've got nothing against humans, but I prefer them to not be chasing me. It tries to grab me, and I run over toward the computer and hide amongst the maze of cables (humans are so messy!). It pulls the computer aside, staring right at me for 3 solid minutes, but it never actually sees me. I really don't know where else to go. But I sure as hell am not dumb enough to go inside the computer.

This isn't the first time I've seen the human. A few days ago I was in the living room and that fucker shows up acting like it owns the place. Now it's come back to open up the computer and search for me! So I've got to end this post now and get off the computer before it sees me.

You aren't going to lure him out. Once they go in flight mode, they usually won't eat until they feel secure. They can squish themselves down in pretty tight spots. You can usually catch them with tape, but a small lizard can be a bitch to take off the tape without hurting it (use soapy water).

... That was a decent cheesy pun.

Well, I think the lizard is hiding in the small space between the carpet and the wall. I'm not going to bother trying to look through there. I noticed that the dead cricket that was on my window sill is gone, so that was kind of nice of the lizard. If he shows up again, I'll take him outside. If not, I guess there are worse creatures to have in your room.
