I'd have to say the worst thing that ever happend to me.

Is one day while cleaning the snake cages , in the snake room. There cages are stacked 3 high and spaced about 3 feet.

I had all three cages in one stack open on one side to R & R the papers. I dont know why i opened all three on one side at the same time. Was just in a hurry i guess. Well , the bottom burm decided that my foot Smelled like food enough to grab hold of me , right above my shoe in my ankle. I reached down and grabed him to try to keep him from makin to much of a wrap around my leg. When it looked like i'd have to get him off while siting down, I stood back up to close the rest of the cages , i closed the middle one , and as i looked up The burm in the top cage decided my head smelled enough like food , and when i stood up , it excited And she got me right on the cheek , mouth and lips , and started wrapin my head.

The wraping i wasnt to worried about , both were only 10 - 12 Foot. they were managable still by myself. I made sure i turned my head and kept a hand over my throat while i walked over to the step to sit down. The pain was horrable though. The female that got me in the face was riping her teeth back through my skin when i walked and she moved. By the time i got sat down on the step , i had the female half way unwraped. My wife came in to see what i was yellin about and helped me get them back in there cages. I was just having a blond day that day i guess. But it was still scarry.

Best thing that happend with or because of a burm ?

That would have to be the first day i was asked to come back to my own grade school that i went to as a child , to do a reptile program for the kids in the gym. it was the coolest thing i'd ever done. and have done a few since around town at schools up to Jr. high.

And , That for the first time. I'm Breedin some !

My Albino and my het for labby were locked up more than once in the last few days. So , Yeah man ! That's realy exciting. I'm gona be a daddy , Hehehe.

Um ,, that's about it.

if i sound like i'm rambling , Well ,, i just took my pain Pills.

Oh yeah , brian , Congrats on Not fallin off the waggon.

I stoped smoking almost 4 weeks ago , havent picked one back up yet. Wooo !

That's about it. I'm gona go lay back down.
