Haven't had a Magnum bar since but if I ever do I think it will remind me of bad softball, FNL, and you.<br /><br />Lisa--so funny that you mentioned that. I was just thinking about that the other day. That was the day I met Roman and he asked me if I was a farmer and then mocked me because I was apparently doing a terrible job cleaning. <br /><br />And to those of you with the spider comments: I agree that spiders are terrible. But they are nowhere near snakes in terror. If I was ever in that situation Nathan described, I'm positive I would immediately die.ELIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11231200183264672395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964698794691718038.post-26597171151572218542011-06-29T19:43:34.478-06:002011-06-29T19:43:34.478-06:00Remember that one amazing night we spent together,...Remember that one amazing night we spent together, filled with bad softball, FNL talk, and Double Caramel Magnum bars?

You were pretty miserable that day!! I think Nathan's comment was more disturbing than anything else--except crawling in a snake (and who knows what else) infested crawl space (like that scene from Indiana Jones)--gives me the shivers!! yuck!<br />Good luck with the bar studying!!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421626181456270727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964698794691718038.post-15285803705961548502011-06-28T16:12:59.494-06:002011-06-28T16:12:59.494-06:00I just have to say that this has also freaked me o...I just have to say that this has also freaked me out way too much. In fact two nights ago I dreamed all night about snakes, from being in my bed to everywhere else I go in a day. It was not a very good night. <br /><br />Unfortunately I have had more than enough encounters with snakes lately. When we went golfing up at Palisades a week ago I happened to see a blow snake that was about 4 feet long, no joke, and refused to get out of the cart or go anywhere near where I saw the snake. Then some neighbors recently found a snake out by our condos and were walking around with it on a stick. Not to mention our ward now wants us to weed the whole area around our condos where I am sure there are a million snakes lying around, yep pretty sure I will be skipping out on the service project.<br /><br />As for the cookie BBQ sandwich, lets just say I may have learned winning is not everything, well maybe not....Andy and Micalynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03404087838008958759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964698794691718038.post-34314657427540599122011-06-28T15:39:19.542-06:002011-06-28T15:39:19.542-06:00This is, without a doubt, the best thing I've ...This is, without a doubt, the best thing I've read all day.

Humans at one end, crevice in the rocks at the other end, big tangly ball o' snakeage basking in the warmth in the crevice.<br /><br />It was unnerving that we couldn't tell from what we could see whether they were blow snakes or rattlers. But blow snakes are harmless if you don't stick your finger down their throat (rear-fanged), and rattlers are harmless if you don't pester them, so we didn't do either of those things, and both species had a great time getting warm.<br /><br />All that being said, the snake house in Rexburg is gross. You could not pay me enough to live there. And that crawl space thing would be right out.Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13497841713356574682noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964698794691718038.post-65350070597887780892011-06-28T09:25:01.461-06:002011-06-28T09:25:01.461-06:00First of all, I'm so glad you love what I'...First of all, I'm so glad you love what I've done with my hair! I haven't seen you in forever and worried that you might not like it. Second, I can't really relate to the fear of snakes since I've wanted a pet one for years now, but I agree with Andrea... had that been a spider infestation, I would have done the same exact thing you would have... burned the property multiple times and covered it with anthrax and then sold it to bad people. I would never go back within 100 yards of the place.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12521581357352180696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964698794691718038.post-88403679284239064582011-06-28T08:49:37.711-06:002011-06-28T08:49:37.711-06:00As far as manhood goes.

I will never go in that shed again.<br /><br />I completely understand your feelings.<br /><br />Also, the people who purchased the house are morons. I don't care what your agent tells you, if someone is asking you to sign a disclaimer about a snake infestation, get the hell out of there and pick a different house!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13485337471339335531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964698794691718038.post-8372133372248582162011-06-28T07:36:30.638-06:002011-06-28T07:36:30.638-06:00It keeps creeping me out too - I can't stop th...It keeps creeping me out too - I can't stop thinking about it. I think I'm annoying Jeff really bad because I tell everyone I see about the snake house. It brought back the memory of when I was little and used to play with the garter snakes we'd find from the field and I had one wrapped around my arm and it ....hissed at me. I can't believe I ever touched one! What was I thinking!! There was one day that Jace collected about six really unnaturally long worms and cane to the door and knocked. I opened the door and he held up his hand that had the worms clutched in them and said "look Mon, snakes!" I thought they really were snakes, and screamed bloody murder and slammed the door on my very own 3 year old. I think I have "snake related post traumatic disorder.

I still cant believe that someone would buy a house knowing it was infested with snakes. It also made my pre-property purchase research list: 1. have a geologist check and make sure it is not on a fault line or sand 2. check the sex offender registry for any neighbors 3. make sure there are no infestationsBonnie A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05200883103623126959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8964698794691718038.post-81534993018175840162011-06-27T23:15:11.038-06:002011-06-27T23:15:11.038-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Bonnie A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05200883103623126959noreply@blogger.com
