I worked on that set for a grand total of one day. I got to see them building and rigging the pump house for that scene.
I had these ant traps outside and they come with stakes to keep them in place, but I didn't think I'd need to use the stakes to secure the traps. Well, this morning the traps were gone, blown away with the super high winds. Ants are gone though, so I've got that going for me.
Well, since Cooler broached the snakes subject. I had a nightmare about snakes last night and CF was in it.
Nightmare Thing: Felt something crawling under my shirt and pulled off the shirt and there is a snake like thing draped over my shoulder, about a foot long and thicker than a pencil. Grab it to pull it off me but it is embedded in my back like a tick. I yank and pull on it and it stretches like a gummy worm but I cannot get it off. Look closer and it is definitely a snake with its entire little head embedded in the back of my shoulder.
:shocked::shocked::shocked:
I am thinking go to doctor office or the emergency room? Then I realize I needed to first take a picture of this to post on CF!
As I am trying to get a snake selfie I see that the snake is loose and his head is now out. I grab the snake and toss it on the floor. In the dream I am wearing heavy boots that are perfect for snake stomping. The snake ends up in three pieces with guts and stuff all over. I try to take a picture of it with it still wiggling around and I am thinking “Is this pic too gross to post on CF?” Then I wake up.
Don't think I have ever had a creepy snake, monster, alien, insect icky stuff dream before and rarely remember dreams other than mini-snippets. Note to self, do not watch survival jungle/tropical island shows before sleepy time.
Full Disclosure: If this had been real I would have posted the snake selfie pic!

My weekend snake experience was less exciting. Son saw a garter snake in the water feature where we were mini golfing and pointed it out. Women on the other side of the water heard him and started screaming. He started laughing but one of his brothers was smart enough to go pick it up and escort it outside the fence, becoming the hero to the ladies.
On my way to Minnesota on Friday, I stopped at a truck stop to use the restroom. A dad with two young kids came in right after I did. One of the kids asked what goat weed was and at the urinal, the dad said, "I don't know, bud." I went over to wash my hands and saw the kid looking at the condom dispenser hanging on the wall and saw some named Horny Goat Weed. The dad gets done and the kid asked what the condom dispenser was. The dad started to say something, but then the kid kinda interrupted him and the dad said, "Yeah." You could tell he really wanted to get out of that situation. It was pretty funny.
Wife texted me pics of the hail we got. Hopefully the tree she was parked under got the brunt of it and not the car.
I will never understand how my work can go from insanely busy one week to watching grass grow the next. Clock watching at 1:30 equals a long boring afternoon for me.
