slithering in an 'S' shape on the floor and if it matters, i live in the southwest.
I had this same thing happen, only the snake was white and looked like it had black lace running down it's back, it kept striking at my broom, which really didn't mean he was poison. When animal control arrived they didn't know what kind it was and felt it had escaped from a collector an was possibly poisonous because white snakes usually are. So they killed it.
I wouldn't touch it if I were you, just in case.

Well, you're in New Mexico...could be a sidewinder, especially since you say the head is NOT "pointy"....and since sidewinders are rattlesnakes, you've got a spot of bother.
Always wondered over threads like this, by the way - during these times of extreme stress, why do some people jump on the computer?....and then NOT go to Google to try and ID the problem?
