There is a fucking snake under my fridge.

I started to fall asleep on the couch when I realized I'd left the back door unlocked. Not wearing my glasses I began to walk through the kitchen to go and lock the door. I saw something on the floor and thought, "Is that a snake? Did Emma bring a dead snake in the house? Gross." By the time I turned around to get my glasses and made it back into the kitchen to see what it was, it was slithering under my fridge.

I don't think it is poisonous. I didn't see bright colors or hear a rattling noise. I still don't know what kind of snake it is.

It has been under there for half an hour. I have tried using a fishing pole, a wire hanger a broom, persuasive speech... nothing is working. I cannot sleep until this slippery guy is back outside where he belongs.

I hope you finally got him out of the house! Or at least that he didn't bite you in your sleep.
