I'm currently in Raleigh-Durham with best_of_five. I've had lunch with karaz and ficlette and omg, do I love the people here :D Having a great time... now if I could just work less on both work and homework and work MOAR on writing my trekreversebang because omg, wtf, self?! Get that shit done! You're posting soon!

Anyway, I got an email from my mum this morning. She was watering plants right outside our sliding glass door and, in the corner (between the glider and the rocking chair and underneath about 10 plants in varying heights), my mother spots a baby rattlesnake. So she does what anyone would do and slides the furniture away from it, removes all the plants and plant stands and then, using a medium-sized dog dish, slams a dish over the snake and then covers it with pavers and rocks to keep the snake under it. Wouldn't anyone? I mean, I'd totally give a baby rattlesnake eighty billion opportunities to bite me. Wouldn't you?

My mother, unfortunately, wins the distinction of being one of the stupidest people ever with this activity. WHO THE HELL DOES THAT!? And then she got all upset when the firefighter that came to take the snake was all WTF LADY!? She's planning on doing it again if we get another snake. WTFWTFWTFWTF JESUS GOD WTF

Then I'm talking to my sister about the above when my sister mentions a bomb threat at her school. JESUS GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING IN TUCSON!?

When I fly out in the middle of the night on Sunday, I get to Phoenix at like 1130am. Then, from there, off to a nephew's birthday party. 10 hours of travel right into a birthday party for a 4 year old. w00t!

Oh my goodness-- I am so glad that your mother is ok, but I really hope she does not play with any more rattlesnakes, because omg!dangerous when one is not a parselmouth! (I'm going out on a limb and guessing your mom isn't one) I am glad you are having fun in RDU and I should really stop refreshing my f-list and get back to working on my slashfest story even though it hates me and the boys are fighting me every single step of the way! All the more reason to buckle down. *goes back to trying to make George and Viktor kiss* I hope you have a safe and uneventful flight home! :D

Your Mom is kind of amazing. And scary. Only a dog dish!? Seriously, not even if I was ninja. Snakes are flipping quick.

Tucson? Where's that? *runs*
