Day Twenty Two -late-

[ink_in_hand]

Barely could even get this out. for Dial. From the minute I woke up I've been hit with a migraine and around the time I would have started trying to to do my daily pic I discovered that Onge, my ball python is starting to get mouth rot, cue running around trying to figure out what I can do for her here at home and thoroughly cleaning her enclosure like mad while getting her old one out of storage.

Almost didn't bother even trying today. Someday I'll get back to Dial and draw him again when I'm not stressing the fuck out.

And I know I've fallen behind a bit with some of my comments in places, I'll try to get to those as soon as I can.

We get hog nosed snakes too, though their puff up display once had an uncle of mine convinced they were cobras. yeah-no I love those snakes, and apparently I used to play with them all the time when they were everywhere as a child though I don't remember.

That's weird, never would have guessed they were only in one half of Kansas. So you could sorta group me with those people, but then I've never lived or even visited there.

wow, cobras? really? uh... those aren't even native to this continent.

yep, apparently they don't like how "moist" eastern kansas is. (and that's entirely a relative term, because the humidity isn't really that much greater, but apparently it's just enough.) being non-local definitely excuses it, but really people in the state, even the moist parts, should be aware of the things that can kill you in your home region. cause from Kansas City, it's not as far west as you might think before you'll start encountering them alongside the road when your car breaks down.

Yeah, my uncle is uh, special. In the willfully ignorant kind of way, a couple of summers back he said he caught a cobra and got it in a bucket, first thought it was someone's escaped pet or something but no, there's this haggared little hog nosed annoyed at being bothered by two legged giants instead.

Sometimes I enjoy the Darwin Awards more than I morally should, if just because people don't bother to do research in this vast information age.

poor snake!

i also enjoy the Darwin Awards more than i should. (but i also feel better about knowing that those sorts of idiots will no longer be attempting to raise other human beings and send them out to join the rest of the population.)
