Those eyes belonged to a pygmy rattler. Thank goodness he didn't bite me because I don't think anyone would have volunteered to suck the venom from where he'd have surely bitten me.
Did you need a new pair of underwear? Lol
Not really, at the time I thought myself indestructible and was under the false belief that a bite from a pit viper would only harm you after 8 hours if left untreated. (This BTW, is a lie that can only be believed by innocent youth) I think I did make a reference to mother or something but it was rather surreal and my shock had more bearing on my thoughts than anything. It was just weird seeing those beady eyes peering up at me and my family jewels. I will say that this was a life lesson not soon forgotten because now its common practice for me to kick out all debris to bare dirt before I'll sit down in the woods.
