Here's one of me while driving back to work from lunch, about 2 minutes before sky told me there was a thread I would probably want to check about a supposed sighting of me in the real world. Anyway, minus sky since he already know what happened, anyone want to guess what happened that made me fear breaking my camera to take a picture of my ugly mug?

That's impressive. First guess, and I didn't even have to cheat and tell him. :bow:

I figured that's what most people's thoughts would be. Yes, Woddie you are correct, one of my snakes bit me. I don't know if I trust sky enough to say that he didn't I'm you and tell you what happened so you could gain cool beans points by guessing right.

Right as I was about the leave my apartment to go back to work I had my biggest snake kind of wrapped around my head like a turbin and I felt her strike. I felt her brush my face, thinking it was only part of her body and she had only let me know she was in a bad mood or was frightened by something I was doing but low and behold I looked in the rearview mirror and low and behold I saw that it was her teeth that brushed against my face. Like most shaving cuts there is literally no evidence of any strike on my face, aside from the pics this afternoon. Anyway, she's going to make a great belt, just kidding. Whatever it was left her at lunch because I handled her all afternoon without any problems and she is still my favorite snake I own.
 
Dude, from that 1st shot you almost look like Jesse Ventura. How'd you like working with Shwarzenager in Predator?
 
Now see, you have a level of trust far greater than me! I had a ball python bite me once and that was it for her. By the tail, swung hard, floor shot to the head, that was all she wrote.

I dont care how long or how cool any pet of mine is. A face bit will be their last bite.....

You are a better man than I !
 
I'm assuming from the lack of puncture wounds you have a boa or is it a python??
 
I have 3 boas and 1 python, though I more or less gave the python to my roommate (I gave it to him and 1 week later he gets deployed to the sandbox so I still have the python).
 
Yeah you gotta love it when they "hug" you.:ha

I had an albino boa. Got to about 6 feet got sick and died. Have had many many "sandpaper" wounds. (SFEs in the beginning)
 
While not having any new puncture marks today, I really had another one of those days. I finally realized at 3:30 this morning when I woke up for work that I am no longer 19 years old. My body was really sore. I mean I literally I felt like I had either did a swan dive onto the concrete from 20 feet in the air or I may have forgotten about getting hit head on by a mack truck. It could happen!!!

I kept trying to think what I could have done to be so sore. I mean my PT session was not that heavy yesterday. The only thing that came to mind was a few whacks I made with a sledgehammer. I mean I was only showing my kids how a real man wields a sledgehammer and the 1/2" dent into the steel deck, the corner no less, really showed them that while they had youth and vigor, my old butt still had the power. Their eyes almost popped out when they saw the dent I had made. Anyway, I woke up this morning and my arms were sore and my back felt like someone had turned it into a pretzel while I slept.

I went to work, after popping a couple vitamin "M" and would not let my ki9ds have the satisfacyion that I was hurting. As luck would have it instead of having to sit in the back of the PT formation I luckily got to lead it where all of them had full access to see me suffer. However since I am a man I took my pain in silence and smoked the dog crap out of them. By the time PT was finished I almost died while driving home from the intense workout I gave.

There are times like this one knowing that I will probably feel a little worse tomorrow morning at 3:30 than I did at 3:30 this morning. I do know that tomorrow morning even feeling a little worse I will still be greatful to be alive and able induce another smoke session on my kids (I'll probably have a heart attack if I do but isn't that why they invented nitro pills?) if I am given the pleasure.

Anyway, I see some more vitamin M looming on my near horizon and have to get my daughter ready for bed, thus the sooner she falls asleep the sooner I can get everything I need for tomorrow ready for another day of torture.
