Yet another reptilian adventure

In my freaking HOUSE people!!!

Internet, meet the freaky, blind, pink snake that was found swishing its body side to side doing its best, tiny, little Ray Charles impression on my BATHROOM FLOOR.

Texas Blind snake

See its little blind, beady eyes????
See its tiny, creepy little blind eyes?

It is about 2 inches long.
It is about 2 inches long and looks deceivingly like an earth worm

The National Audubon Society Field Guide to North American Reptiles and Amphibians says that they are found in Texas, after a nice spring rain in the evening. The book says NOTHING about how the hell a 2 inch blind snake found its way into my completely enclosed and tiled bathroom on a rainy evening.

Did I mention that the book states it is a baby at that length…….so where, pray tell, the hell are its siblings?????????

The best for last….this from the NASFGNAR mentioned above:

“It defends itself by coiling and writhing about, smearing cloacal fluid over it’s body”.

So there you have it. I have blind snake butt liquid all over my pink tiled floor.

Freaking nasty.
