What are the things you do to suppress the urge to buy a another snake :-)
Well, technically for the last few months I have been ball crazy. Everyday, I am here at BP.net, in a Day I probably spend 2-3 hours spread out just reading and checking out photos on the net.
My wife's tolerance meter is almost on the limit :-)
But we just cant get enough, even if there is no budget, I still try to find a way to get it.. Man this is how it feels to be addicted :-)
So what do you guys do to help get your mind off from buying snakes?

Ball Pythons here in the Philippines are crazy expensive and I bought 5 this year, the first normal one escaped :-( The second spidey, I sold just a few days ago, the third, MJ my pastel hatchling, the fourth DOT my new female normal and last, the bee who I paid for but hasnt arrived yet.
The crazy thing is, I want more!!!! :-(
Trying to sell some old gadgets now lol!

What I usually do in such a situation is buy another snake (or two). Doctors have been trying to figure out a cure for this addiction for almost 20 years now but with no success.

When I want to get another I just sit in a quiet spot & travel in time (in my head of course). Watching my wife & me sleeping on the couch for a month. It usually gets me off the computer rather quickly & doing something else to get my mind off it.
It is hard though I bought 5 this year. I was given a max limit of 3. HAHA! So I feel you on the addiction part.

When it's guitar related, this sickness is called G.A.S. (Gear Acquisition Syndrome)...And I'm a proud patient...
I really hope that this wont happen to me with snakes (but chances are, it will)

I used to suffer from G.A.S. quite often
With snakes I just look at the space and money I don't have.

Well,
1) I locate a place in my room,
2) I put a set up there,
3) I get another!

Sometimes I go step 3, 1, 2.
I told myself last time that I couldn't afford another. And then I realized I was selling three babies that I was paying to feed. So now I can afford three more! ha
