Conversion!

[CherryPython]

This has nothing to do with converting measurements...more like people!

No secret, I used to be scared lifeless of snakes. Shamefully had a panic attack after an incident with a corn snake. I can't explain it. But once I gave them a chance, I was COMPLETELY converted All thanks to Ball Pythons

My other half never really had much to do with Pretzel until a couple of months into our relationship, we were sat there one night just chillin and I went to get Pretzel out and he froze up.

I figured it would take a bit of work

So anyway after a visit to our local reptile store (they're amazing) and a lot of research and slowly having handling sessions with her, he loves her. CONVERTED. Wheyyy

The last few texts between us have been about getting "our" first snake, and next week on Thursday we're picking up a gorgeous Het Pied Male (Someone can explain Het if they like, Im still confused), about 2 years old. He's been in the shop forEVERRR and apparently nobody wants him! Well we do.

Anybody got any other "conversion" stories?

My conversion story...

I started out Pentecostal because that's what my parents were at the time, then in my teen years I started flirting with going either Baptist or possibly following the Vulcan practice of Kolinar.

Once I joined the military and was out on my own I went through Wicca, Celtic Paganism, Buddhism and about six other "ism" type practices.

After watching the move Bull Durhan I converted to the Church of Baseball for a short time one summer. As recently as 15 years ago, I flirted around with Humanism.

I finally figured out I'm an Atheist and have been very happy ever since. No guilt about sin and such, and I have no compulsion to save the world from its self.

Wait...that is what we were talking about, right?

I considered Kolinar myself but then decided that I preferred the Klingon ways of killing their gods lol

But to the point of this thread...

I have always been somewhat interested in reptiles, but as a kid I wouldn't go anywhere near a snake if you paid me. My girlfriend decided that she wanted a pet snake so I started researching them and decided on getting a BP. Now I have 6 snakes and plans to get more
