So, even though my fieldwork is effectively over, and I’ve lived here for a year and a half, I’m still experiencing new things.
Today it was a very long (2.5-3 feet) black snake rearing up like a cobra on my driveway when I got home. It was possibly a cobra (according to people here). Yikes!
I’ve let people at the house know and steps are being taken. I’m sure I’ll be fine. Just a few short days now.

I hope you took a picture. Never mind that you were probably terrified. Your public needs photo evidence.
It would help if the photo shows you posed, with a smile, beside the snake! That would certainly continue to improve your image with the various boys who have heard about “said” cobra, and now WORSHIP you to varying degrees.
