However, we have a black snake that resides in ours but he/sh doesn't bother anyone. Well, except for the occasional nosiness. He likes to come out of hiding and gets real close to watch what you're doing.shellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09596621767297173021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380333434023882340.post-52867476261694336292012-04-21T16:57:59.269-07:002012-04-21T16:57:59.269-07:00Your lucky, Sir Wills.

...I pained a large picture depicting a snake once.<br /><br />Oh, and, of course there's Nemahh in my second book with 2 snake tails--just to make him creepier. *shiver*. I don't mind snakes as long as they keep their distance. But they are great to use in a story for obvious fear factor.Lorelei Bellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03294047277447613989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380333434023882340.post-89968919764947491982012-04-21T06:03:07.442-07:002012-04-21T06:03:07.442-07:00Ewww...I hate snake dreams.

I was hanging or taking clothes off the line for my mom when I felt like something was watching me. Yup. Two beety eyes were watching me all righ. The dog gone thing was in up right position mesmerized by me. It had no intentions of striking me. Weird. But I screamed and ran into the sliding glass door. I hurt my face and the snake slithered into the woods. My step-dad caught it and chopped off its head.shellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09596621767297173021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7380333434023882340.post-60060569015267102792012-04-21T05:55:17.833-07:002012-04-21T05:55:17.833-07:00Oh, and now that I think of it, I had a dreams wit...Oh, and now that I think of it, I had a dreams with snakes in it.

In the community center of their development, there was a big poster devoted to all the poisonous snakes in the area. It was almost enough to make me hightail it back to the northeast. =)M.J.
