Dear Diary

I've been feeling restless lately.  It makes sense, I guess.  There's been a a lot of change in my life in recent days.

And I guess it's all good.  I'm happy.  I'm comfortable.  I've been hanging around with some newer aquaintances, and that seems to be going well as I get to know them better.  This whole transition thing, though, has caused me to take a closer look at myself.  I should make more changes.

I started thinking about how, perhaps, others view me.  There's a school of thought that says we shouldn't care about that, but I for one think it's important to ponder .  What am I projecting?

As I thought this over, I don't think that others see the "real" me. I think I appear as smallish, rather insignificant in the grand scheme of things.  I wanted to change that perception.  To do that, I decided to start with my appearance.

I'm sloughing off the old, and re-emerging in a truer form.  I experimented with that today, and I think it's going well.  My new friends really noticed the "new" me.  I can tell that I'm bigger, more prominent to them now.  

Alpha status.  That's my goal.

Hugs and Kisses,
King Reese

------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, Reese the snake shed his skin sometime in the last 24 hours.  Meego texted me while I was tutoring.  He remained burrowed under for most of yesterday, but then he popped up today and, migosh, he's actually quite a bit bigger.  I didn't expect it to be noticeable, but it is.

power hungry


Kat is quite interested in all this.  I think maybe the two of them are in competition to see who can be  Biggest Pet.

"Patootie Cat"! Bwahahahahaha!

Okay, so I thought the snake was kind of pretty when you first showed him. But the thought of him getting bigger makes him a bit creepy to me again. I hope he doesn't get TOO big!

Wow. King Reese isn't wasting any time, is he! Is Meego a proud papa watching his pet's first shedding?
Kat is most likely taking notes on how to shed her skin so that she can continue to eat more. ;)
China seems to be a lot like Chancie. Oblivious, yet incredibly happy. I should take notes from them!

The breeder we bought him from also had a full-sizer at the expo, which was about double the size of Reese when we got him. The Hulking out of the old skin was a bit surprising, though.

Meego knows he's not supposed to text or call me when I'm with a student, but I guess the proud papa couldn't contain himself.

It's pretty funny to watch the cat being all engrossed in that snake.

I wonder if Kat thinks that you got King Reese just for her entertainment. Glad to hear that China is not affected by all these newcomers. But I have to side with Terri on this one, watching that snake get bigger would kinda wig me out a bit. I just hope you guys don't wind up like Jon Voight in Anaconda
