Today, I went out to get milk from the garage fridge for my mom. The moment I stepped out, my foot settled on the neighbor's boa, who likes to escape. After my mom finally opened the door to my frantic shouting, she spotted the snake, slammed the door, and locked both of us outside. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, as I was rushing to get out for work, I opened my door just in time to witness a large snake slither into my home. I had no choice but to lock it inside and go to work. I've now spent several hours searching for it with my friends, and we can't find it. I'm scared to go to sleep. FML
Today, I woke up to an angry snake trying to climb the leg of my bed. My bedroom was closed all day yesterday. It must have gotten in my room days ago. FML
Today, my 6 ft snake got loose. I found it. It was in my neighbor's backyard, constricting their pet rabbit. FML
Today, I was spending some time alone out in the countryside, when I glanced at my boot. I saw a snake, screamed, ran like hell for my car, tripped over my own feet, and smashed my kneecaps. Upon further inspection, I realized the "snake" was my loose shoelace. FML
Today, my mother found my escaped pet snake after she had already washed and dried it with the laundry. FML
Today, I was going for a relaxing walk but my dog broke free from his leash. At the same time, my 80 year-old neighbor was leaving her apartment. My dog ran inside her home and she screamed. I ended up in her bedroom, running around her bed, chasing my dog who was trying to get at her pantyhose. FML
Today, my mother locked me out of the house. Why? The dog and her needed some time to talk. FML
Today, I went to the pet store to get mice for my mom's snakes. While checking out, the guy working behind the register asked what kind of snakes I had. I told him they were my mom's and he mentioned this crazy woman that talks to her snakes. That's my mom. FML
Today, as I was going to check the mail, a huge dog ran into my house. The closest room with a door was the bathroom so I slammed myself inside and screamed for help. We live far from any neighbors and my phone was outside, so there was no hope of rescue. It paced outside the door for four hours. FML
Today, I visited my grandma. Shortly after I arrived, she freaked out after finding a "snake" in her closet. It was a rubber snake that my brother must have put there yesterday as a prank. I picked it up and told her it was fake. She then yelled at me for playing such a disgusting prank on her. FML

Personally, I would return the head and eat the rest, snake meat is yum-my :) just kidding, not sure if boa tastes the same as a rattlesnake, I would imagine it does though. Yes eating snake meat is a thing in Louisiana and a few other states.

Tell your neighbor to get a better setup with a locking lid. As a dedicated snake owner, personally, I'd be abhorred to learn that someone was that careless with their animal.

How does a boa escape? Be glad it didn't bite you! Call animal control; they are big and some dogs are small.

The worst part of the whole experience was that I thought I hurt the boa by stepping on it. I was horrified that I could do such a thing, even if on accident

Well as long as neither party was hurt this can be a funny story for the future. However you REALLY should talk to your neighbor about being more careful about his snake!! Most people probably would either try to kill it or get someone else too when its just chilling. Snakes are pretty cool pets and its a shame that they have such a negative stigma
