I haven't paid rent in 5 months, I have sold one Jeep and am in the process of selling a car. I quit my job a month ago. I haven't been able to find a job because I'm on here or helping a friend rake his yard so I can find reptiles. I have $6 in my pocket and all I can think about is "I pray I have the money to get that albino I have preordered for the summer". I got pissed when they canceled the March Arlington show. No intention of going, but IF I had changed my mind. I'm looking around my apartment for things I don't need. Not for food, but in case I see a snake online I have to have.

I feel ya.

Food for a week or new snake?
snake!

I often find myself looking at water coolers, fridges or whathaveyou and thinking 'That would make a SWEET incubator!'

Empty fishtank on the side of the road?
YOINK!

HAHA... That's funny and sad 'cause I do that too. Just did that, actually...

I actually got into an interesting discussion with my mom the other day about my practice of thawing out rodents in the sink. It went something along the lines of "Why is there a dead rodent in my sink?" and ended with "Don't complain at least it's not drugs!"

I have actually used "Sorry I got snake poop on me and I had to wash it off" as a valid reason for being late to work.

When I knew my eggs were hatching I actually cancelled a date to go home and check on them.

One guy said "It's the snakes or me"... I've still got the snakes. Silly boy.
