I ........... went to the reptile store i frequent and this dude has a little milksnake so i was like can i hold that? And dude said sure so he put it on my hand and i felt an instant connection with the snake. It was weird. So we go there the other day and i wanted to try to hold one again so i held a small hognose snake (which i didnt know was slightly venomous) then was like i wanna hold a bigger one so my buddy took out this 2 foot cornsnake and i held it and my buddy ended up buying a ball python that was there. Well my girl was asking me to hold that and i was like .... that its too big. Well my buddy that bought the snake was arachnephobic so i told him to hold one of the rose hairs there and he was like only if you hold my python while i do it and i was like .... it and did it. She was so calm it surprised me lol. I fell in love with her and he let the rose hair crawl on him a little and didnt freak out or anyting so we both made strides in that direction.</p></blockquote><p></p>
