I have a girl friend who came to my apartment the other day, and she's pretty afraid of snakes. To my surprise, she told me she really wanted to see them... I'm sure she'd have touched one if I had let her, but I had fed about an hour before... We then went to one of my guy friend's houses, and he's got a Red Tail Boa named Death (boys...), and she touched him. Now, my past boyfriend... Out of sight, out of mind... He'd really rather look and not touch... He was also terrified that the glass at the aquarium in Dallas would break, and would hardly walk under the tunnel. Then again, he's like that with all animals... Considering the fact that I want a house and pasture full of animals... All I've got to say is, NEXT! It's so awesome that there are so many girlies that love doing animal things, not fashion, drama, and boys.
