    mixed emotions
    Well, it was just one of those days, where your kind of just roaming around the town in your areas, doing stuff you need to do, and even stuff you don't really need to do.
    Well, I decided to look for a fish or two from my son's fish tank, and traveled to a mom and pop pet store that i really like (i won't buy from petco anymore-75% of their fish ALWAYS have ick)
    I got there, lookin at the fish... lookin at the fish.... WHOOAAAA....now im lookin at the what seems to be a small adult BP in that tank over there.... it looks REALLY light....very pretty... "Can I hold that snake over there??"

    uh oh...

    the poor thing had scars all up and down it's back, and was SOOOO skinny... didnt look like it shed in months and months....some guy dropped it off not wanting it anymore

    and you ALL know what this means

    I will try and get some pictures up asap. :o) He's a real sweetheart, and took to me right away. The boy working there said he hadn't acted that way toward anyone in the shop (i believe him, he doesnt get enough money to try his minuscule marketing skills on me) He's a real "facer" - gets right up into my face. Its really too cute. I have full confidence that I can get this boy back into shape. it's just so sad to see such a sweet boy in bad shape like this.

    So yeah, it was just one of those days where you ended up rescuing a snake again....


    P.S.- you know you're a herper when.... you're looking for an "extra" lamp that you "guess you don't need" for it's cord. You flexwatt people will get it :)
