Heh! I had an incident on Friday night... peripheral vision catches moving object, turn head and before my brain had even registered fully what it was the next thing I knew I was screaming bloody murder, jumping up on my chair and having a complete attack of the willies.
Turns out it was a three foot long black racer that's been roaming our yard recently; he was some two yards from me when I panicked. The good news? Not poisonous. The bad news? The adrenaline wouldn't die down for hours.

Having a horrid snake phobia is really no fun.
