Shopping spree and new addition

        I spend way too much time sitting home alone. It gets really lonely, boring and depressing at times.  Like I've said before, I've never been one that enjoys being alone. So, over the course of the last few weeks I went on a shopping spree. My most recent purchase was a much needed new  computer. Dell had a good sale going on last weekend and I received it this past Friday. What a difference! It's more than twice the machine that I had. I can't wait to shoot the old one. Most of my shopping was done on Ebay. I spent way too much. Aside from a few things, most of what I bought was gun accessories. I spent more than I should have, but my rifles and shotguns all look pretty cool now. Also more functional. The start of my shopping spree began the last time I went to the pet store to get dog food. I always check out the reptiles when I go. On this trip they had a tarantula for sale. I've always wanted a tarantula, but, I won't do impulse buys with living things. So, I came home and did some research on keeping tarantulas as pets. Main food source is crickets. I wasn't too sure about doing the cricket thing again. I've done it in the past for a couple of lizards that I had. Snakes and spiders don't bother me, but, crickets freak me out. Don't like 'em! Yes, I know I'm strange. So while I was debating about the tarantula, I went back to the pet store to look at it again and saw a beautiful Pueblan Milk snake for sale. These snakes are the same colors as the venomous Coral snakes and it's these two snakes that the old rhyme are about. "Red touches black, venom it lacks. Red touches yellow, will kill a fellow".  I thought about it for a few days and went back and bought it. He/she doesn't like being held yet. Hasn't bit me yet, but goes through the motions! It's quite feisty!

Isn't he/she a beauty?
 

 So I fed the snakes and was sitting here bored again, thought I'd better write a blog instead of going on Ebay. Lol. Thanks for listening, Kevin
