It's time to sell the house. Omg. Of course the UPS guy showed up when I found it and was having a melt down. He' was ready to pee his pants from laughing. Big man on campus wouldn't kill it it though. Pfffft.

Well. Sending it over would require handling, approaching and not passing out so I can crawl all over me. Probably not going to happen KB... Just saying.
It's too damn big when I can see it from my kitchen window.

I keep thinking of the migration of snakes in Illinois, or the snake dens of Manitoba where tens of thousands of snakes congregate
As a kid i loved critters: i'd catch them, keep 'em in an aquarium a day or two, then let them go.
I read every book on the subject. What I always wanted to get was a praying mantis. For some reason there weren't any at my place. The next highway south/west had them (about 4km's away). Five years ago I saw my first and this year i've seen 5 or 6. They must be moving north.

Diligently follow the path of two swords as one. Percieve that which the eye cannot see. Seek the truth in all things. Do not engage in useless activity.
