The kids did their flying kaplooshes into the pool and then came the now familiar screams..
"MOM!! There's a snake!!!"
"A SNAKE!!!"
This time the snake was playing peek-a-boo with Gray Mysterio and Blackie Chan. Gray Mysterio was really trying hard to hold the little snakie-poo down by the tail. Snakie was having no part of it. He was desperate to hide under the bag of charcoal.
I finally rescued the poor snake from the evil clutches of the formidable Gray Mysterio, but it involved a lot of screaming, cussing, pleading and begging.
"Please, please, go that way snake.", as I prodded it with the leopard print broom that I got from Lowe's.
"EEEK!!!!!!!!!!!" "Holy SH*T!!!!" "GO THAT WAY!!!!!", as it moved towards me instead of the screen door and I run the opposite way.
"OUT!!!OUT!!!!!!!!!! You, DAMN snake!!!", as it headed back toward the charcoal hide-away instead of the door! I jumped around swiping at the reptile with my leopard print broom, wearing my leopard print swimsuit and swearing like a sailor. I know who the neighbors will be talking about this week!
The kids had a few giggles at my expense but the snake was ejected from the pool area and Gray Mysterio was left looking puzzled as he batted at the charcoal bag.
