I jinxed myself...
Well, I guess I jinxed myself! Here's what I wrote yesterday on llovelace's thread about getting bitten...
"I often keep the feeders near my snakes, and haven't gotten a bite yet - but two of them also let me hand-feed (no tongs required), so I guess they aren't the biting type. Now that I say that, I'll probably get a good one tomorrow..."
As predicted, I got my first bite today! Delilah has been in shed for almost a week, and I was getting worried about how she's been squished in the corner. So I made the stupid mistake of picking her up, since I've handled Toby during shed without a problem... first she hissed a warning (which usually leads to nothing), and then she tagged me. You're right, it hurts less than a paper cut, although it did make my heart jump a little - but I've had cat scratches that hurt 20x more. She acted all tough about it, so I'll humor her and pretend it was horribly painful. Here's a picture of my deep wound, LOL:
Can you even find it among the freckles?
