I faced a similar quandary. When I first got in to snakes I had a girlfriend who loved my dog to bits, which was a plus to me, but hated my Coastal Carpet Python. One day she came around as I was feeding her. She gave her usual screwed up face which I ignored as always. When I finished she said off handedly "You know when we move in together, your going to have to get rid of her". Partly outraged at being told what to do but mostly outraged at being told to get rid of my little girl, I blurted out "Know this, you are infinitely more replaceable than she is". Within 30 seconds of that statement I was single again. Do you think I could have used a little more tact? :lol:
i somehow missed this the other day,...hahaha, thats gold!
