THE TALE OF A SNAKE


So i have decided that you can divide the human race into two groups in several different ways. For example, you can say there are those who HATE the the snow, and there are those who like it. OR , there are those who like the fruity candy and those who prefer the chocolate. Some who like blondes and some like brunetts .Coke or Pepsi. Then there is a more serious topic. One that may send someone screaming or send chills down your spine. Or in my mother's case, send you to the floor in the fetal position. Its a ...ssssssnake! People either HATE them or like them. So I really discovered this when Matt and i made a slithering serpent our first pet. Weird , I know. so we have had this snake before Hayley was even born and suprisingly, she is quite an interesting pet. So, to get to the point. We thought we had lost her the other day. Matt will sometimes put her in a tree while he is working outside and she will usually bask in the sun...or climb down. Well, she did the latter. She is usually easy to find. She is a little over 5 ft long and she is not the fastest creature..or very intelligent for that matter. Well, several hours passed and nightfall came. Since she is nocturnal, we knew she would be on the move at night. Our hearts sank. She was missing for 24 hours! Very sad. Then the next day Matt was a t the gas station and a woman asked if the red Denali was ours, and of course he said yes. Then she said "is THAT yours?!" Sure enough, our snake was crawling out of the wheel. Its crazy to think how this must have looked to someone. This lady even took pictures with her camera phone. Yes, the snake was just chillin in our bumper. We had driven all over town with her there. I think I will notify GMC and tell the our car is not only comfortable for our family but lso our snake.
