It's a sna~ake, snAA~AAke! (aka: my Slytherin side is showing)

For those that don't know, my office sits on a 5 acre lot of land, on which exists a vast amount of 'wild' life. Grass, trees, tribbles, snakes... well, okay, no tribbles, but today we had a little excitement of a serpentine nature

I'm afraid of snakes because they are unknown and I have never been around them enough to know what they will do when.

... I keep my distance from wild ones. (I don't want to get bitten.. safer to keep my distance, just in case.)

And admire them because they are rather pretty creatures, and I have been around "tame" ones enough to know that they're not horrible.

... I don't want to kill them just because SOME SPECIES of snakes CAN be deadly...

I'm in full agreement.

While I'm a bit wary around snakes in the wild, that's because I can't tell which ones are venomous. Snakes that I know aren't? So cute! =3 There was this adorable little ball python that someone I knew would bring to campus accassionally. His (the snake's) name was Raistlin, and he really liked me. Partly because I was warm and it was winter, partly because I smelled good, I think. He got all sleepy and curled up in my shirt around my bra strap once. I had to untangle him when it was time to go to class.

Awww, now that is too cute. Those snakes (ball pythons) are really mellow, nice snakes to have.
We're just big warm, mobile trees to those guys.

Hehe, I wonder what would have happened if he'd gone to class with you... ;)

I always rather liked snakes, myself; I've got a picture with a Burmese python around here somewhere, now that I think of it... It was CUTE! XD

I just love the way they all move.
Great icon for the post! :)

I felt it appropriate. ^_~
