Mmmmmm.... glove!

I had to give a talk at 9:30 this morning at the St. Paul School. I do this every year on the last day of school. The kids don't want to do any work on the last day so I help entertain them.
I went to get the Dumeril's boa (AKA demerol boa) out of the cage. I didn't feel like messing around for 10 minutes with a hook because it's bitey, so I put on my big gloves and just grabbed it, but not before it tried to grab me! Instead it grabbed the glove. It had me wrapped so tightly that I couldn't get the glove off. 
It didn't hurt, I just couldn't get my hand out of the glove. Finally, I was able scrunch my hand up and pull it out of the glove after several minutes of wrestling. 
I was now running late, so I had to leave it, just hoping it wouldn't swallow that glove like the dummy it is. Meanwhile, I wasted at least five minutes of precious animal-packing time.
I got everything in the car and took off. I got stuck in traffic -- and I was not even on the highway. I sat there for a good 15 minutes (I would have had 15 minutes to unload my car, etc. at the school).
I got there, unpacked just as the kids were getting there. I think I had about 15 seconds to spare.
Using all of that adrenaline is exhausting!
It is now four and a half hours later. The snake is still wrapped around that glove, but thankfully, not swallowing it. Every time I make a move to get it, the snake coils tighter around the glove.
Just another day in the asylum.
