    R.i.P. Stubby :(

    I have not had enough time to sit down lately and make any decent posts... but recently, Stubby, my oldest garter and dear friend passed away. She was the big girl that was whacked by a lawn mower a few years ago.. she was already huge when I found her (mutilated) so I am guessing she was just an older snake. It just sucks to lose a snake that you nursed back to health from the brink of death and have bonded with over the years... On top of this, other things in my snake world have gone awfully wrong lately. I jsut got back from a very upsetting vet visit...I am not going to go into detail though... It's just overall not a good time for me right now so if it seems like I am not around as much, thats why. I'll psot some nice pics of stubbers when I am more feeling up to it.

    Oh. Because you know, it seems to me that, aside
    from being a little mentally ill, she's pretty normal.

    Aww... Shannon, I know you pain. I saw a large female I'd caught earlier this year dead from some sort of odd injury; I'd only found her once and immediately I was on the brink of tears.
    I'm so sorry Shannon. At least you have baby snakes to continue the legacy.
    And nice hair.
