WOO HOO somebody else that has to drive an hour away to the vet. Don't you love rush hour traffic that normaly you don't have to go through but because you have to have the test ran you have to get in traffic to make it to the vets 5 secs. before they close.

LOL your referd to as the lizard or snake lady at work.

When your nightly chore is to pick through the mealworm bins to clean out dead bodies or aliens.

When you have your own freezer in your bedroom for rodents because family members get nervous with dead mice in the fridge.

When you only enjoy talking to people who know something about reptiles or actually care what you're talking about, which is reptiles.

When you sit in silence for an hour wanting to talk about reptiles but knowing no one will care

When you circle EVERY school project in some way around your snake

(Yes, all have been me lol)

when u wake up every three or so hours to change the frogs water and make sure its clean... when u spend all day tearing apart your room trying to find them when they magically escape from there cage... when u bring them to school and ditch acouple of classes to make sure your corn will eat his mouse because u didn't have time in the morning. when u bake a cake for its birthday even thoe it can;t eat it it just seemed like the right thing to do at the time lol.

"Your wife goes to the cupboard to get a tupperware container, but you have them all utilized as water dishes."......I know that feeling, my woman hates me for that.:D

...when you are jumping from rock to rock catching lizards at the park to feed crotes, all along folks stare at you from afar like your a mad man.

...when you have to explain to the cashier that the heat pads are for a snake, not your bad back.

...when you explain to your girlfriend why you stole all the pillow cases for your long drive out of town the night before.

...when you remove the working lightbulb out of the bathroom to temporarily replace your lizards basking light.

...when you freezer is filled with more rats and DOR snakes than icecubes and ice cream.

hmmmm, I am sure there are hundreds more........

- when the cashier at the grocers asks you what kind of veggie that is, and you reply you don't know, it's lizard food.

(for the longest time I could not remember "endive")

- when you spend more time fixing your reptiles dinners than your own

-when you won't fork over $300 for new blinds because you think that's ridiculously expensive, but you will fork it over for a sick reptile.

My hubby throws that one in my face all the time. The fact that I wouldn't spend xxx money on nicer blinds, but I will spend xxx on a reptile without thinking twice. hmmmmmm

When your waredrobe is filled with old pants and finally you see a nice pair of pants at only 39.95$ (that would last at least 1 or 2 years) and don't take it, but the same day you write a check of 375.46$ for frozen mice !! (that will last 3 months)

Reading you guys makes me feel alot better knowing me and my girlfriend are not alone,, but I still think you're all a bunch of freaks that don,t know how to set priorities...

WYZ and Meduza the freaks ! ;)

when you are talking to friends and family as say things like "oh and yesterday Cleo did the CUTEST thing"

When your record log book is neater and more comprehensive than you homework!
