You'll never guess what I did yesterday! Unless, of course, you say that I handled 10 foot long boa constrictors, hairy tarantulas, enormous iguanas, and a 50 pound python, because in that case you'd be right. I was volunteering at The Science Place for Earth Day, and there was this huge snake exhibit. Next to it was an exhibit with tarantulas and hissing cockroaches. I got the job of walking around, practically wearing a 25 pound boa that could have easily killed me if if wanted to. I also got the fun job of holding the head away for those that were squeamish. For three hours. I also helped people carry around the albino Burmese python, which was easily 50 pounds and required three people to carry it because it was so heavy. It must have had a diameter of 6 inches. I also spent a lot of time holding the tarantulas in the next exhibit. Fun fun. To make matters even MORE fun, I got to put a python named Cleopatra back on the tree every time she made a bid for freedom. Plus, she was shedding, which makes snakes edgy and antisocial. Oh, joy...

Why is ezboard down again? I want to check Kell's message board, "Watch Out For Snakes". Oh, the irony...
