This morning was the funeral of my close childhood friend, Shane. I wasn’t able to go because I was emotionally distraught over losing him, and the guilt of missing it was already weighing heavily on me when had to take my boa, Lady Peanut Butter, to the vet.

I brought her in not long ago for lethargy and anorexia, and it was eventually discovered that she had a tumour in her lung. Today was the day she went in to have it removed; tragically, she passed away from complications in surgery.

Peanut Butter was an amazing, incredibly sweet snake and I loved her dearly. She will be deeply and sorely missed.
I'm an absolute wreck.
