That is the sort of stories people were telling. One expert was saying that the moccasins can't see well, and they think you are a shadow to hide under. That made zero sense to me. I think that expert was even more sleep drunk than I am. Scary stuff. I live near a creek and have always thought I'd run into one, but I haven't. I've heard nonvenomous snakes don't live on the same land as venomous, and thus far that seems to be the case because I have a lot of rat snakes.

Oh I haven't heard that about non venomous and venomous not living on the same land. I've seen both on our property though, one of the first ones we saw was a Copperhead at the end of the porch. You have to be very alert all the time that's for sure. Even rat snakes creep me out.
The neighbor kid was playing with my son the other day and decided to grab a bunch of spider egg sacks and bring them in the house to show me. I flipped out. So freaking disgusting! My wise son instinctively knew not to touch those things :)
oh do spiders freak you out? Do snakes? Spiders don't bother me and I've seen some huge ones in Texas. Your son knew better!
Spiders don't bother me too much so long as they aren't touching me. But the eggs - gross.
It must be midnight in Texas? It is 1 here. Alright, I'm finally going to sleep :)
yes Ma'am it's midnight here, have a great night's sleep!
