Happily Ever After

I was driving back home after picking up a perscription for Carly.  Let me first say this is a MAJOR road, two lanes both ways and a center turning lane, got that?  mmmkay  So, as I said, I’m driving down this major road.  I see this woman walking on the shoulder coming towards me.  

 Oh look Riley, that woman has on a big boa, kinda like yours, except it’s black.  It’s big too, look it goes around her neck and touches the ground….  Oh nevermind Riley don’t look, don’t look.  Ick ick ick ick.

Mommy, that’s not a boa.  What is it?

Um, baby, that’s a snake.  A. HUGE. SNAKE.

I don’t like thnakes.  They creep me.

They creep me out too baby.  ICK.

Mommy what was that thnake’th name?  What is that girl’th name?

Creepy and Redneck I think Riley.

Oh OK.

Swear to God, if I’d had my camera in the car I’d have pulled over and asked her if I could take a picture.  That sucker was as big around as my thigh and had to be a good 10 or 11 feet long.  I guess she was just taking her pet snake for a stroll.  I guess it also could’ve been a boa, just not the kind I originally thought it was.
