Yeah, work gets in the way of all the fun...
I agree with you about letting snakes "go hungry" sometimes. I prefer to err on the side of "underfeeding", it that's what some people want to call it. I also agree on the variable timing, although even if I didn't I'd probably do it anyway cause I'm too lazy to keep track...
