    I'm being very excitable and panicky, he'll probably get back to me tomorrow. Either way I'll get in touch and try to calm down. :)

    Believe me, I get the nervousness! No worries, it'll all work out fine...

    Glad to know that even more experienced folk in pet delivery get the nervousness ;) I fret over every little thing sometimes because I love em so much and want to do right by them. Hence researching like mad.

    You should have seen me when we got Falkor. The delivery person came really early and I was still in bed (I tend to work late at night) but I shot straight into the livingroom out of a near dead sleep, lol! Poor delivery lady probably thought I was crazy, I looked awful but SO happy. Same lady delivered the frozen mice too, I bet it'll be her with Gomez. I think I amuse her with my reptile excitement antics. /(^v^)\

    Don't worry about it Sheree, we're all the same! When our lovely male came in from Adam at 8BallPythons I could barely sleep for checking the FedEx tracking site constantly LOL. I swear when the FedEx guy arrived that morning I nearly snatched the box out of his hand, scribbled my name quickly and I hate to say it, but I think I slammed the door in his face as I ran off to open the box.

    Snake people are nuts, we need a support group (but then we'd only spend the whole time snarfing down coffee & donuts and talking snake anyways LOL). Wait till the breeders start hatching out next year's clutch and you get to level #2 of the addiction....the obsessive daily checking of their websites for any announcements....I was pretty normal till Daniel hooked me on that! :P

    Pitiful bunch we are. I've already got plans for my "free" check in January (the one that comes twice a year when you're paid every two weeks that has no bills or rent due against them), my profit sharing check (I have no clue how much or how little that will be), my tax money, my "free" check in August (yup, already figured when the second "free" check fell) and my vested stock options! LOL

    You're an evil evil temptress, you know that? :devilish: Evil! Stop tempting me! :P lol!

    Actually we only really have room for one more, so seriously I can't go browsing. We have room for Gomez and for if/when Gomez needs a cage upgrade, but no room for another tank so... Till we get a house, Falkor and Gomez are it in the herp department. Our last baby of any species for a good while. But someday... yeah. You know I'll be scary, lol! And luckily for me, Karen loves the snakes to bits and has given me carte blanche when we have the space and money. But till then... *resists level 2!!*

    *joins the support group and has some donuts* Hi, my name is Sheree, and I have Multiple Snake Aquisition Disorder :no:

    MSAD... fortunately i haven't got that disorder yet. *whew* but if it becomes anything like the rest of my life (10 fish tanks - multiple birds, multiple cats, multiple kids, multiple lizards, multiple frogs... oh man i'm scaring myself)

    no worries, i'll be there soon enough!

    Hehe, I actually got that from MPAD which is more all inclusive, which I most certainly have ;) It sounds like you've already got a bad case of it too!

    Ahhhh, but see, the thing is, you only THINK you have room for one more! I'm in a one bedroom apartment. I swore Kashmire was the last pet.

    Now I've cleaned off the computer desk in the bedroom to make space for two more girls in rubbermaid tubs (perfect, because it's really two shelves that these will fit perfectly on, and there IS an identical desk in the living room that could be cleared off too if needed), and I've cleared out an area where I can put a rack with five tubs so that I can have five 'youn 'uns. And the rack is a very efficient use of space!

    So, yeah...........carry on! :devilish: ;)
