Cleaning out my closet just now, I discovered an ENORMOUS spider creeping on one of my skirts. Being a strong, sensible woman who spends her days changing diapers and wiping snotty noses and being the sheltering arms that small children run to...

I shrieked like a seagull.

And spent five minutes whimpering while my brother chased it.

And then I hit it with a big stick until it stopped twitching.



...totally diversionary tactics. *cough*

Hey, you had your moment of glory with the stick bravery. :) I probably wouldn't have mustered the courage to go even that close. :P What a horrible thing! I'm so very sorry about this!!

Everyone knows you have to shriek. It sends out cosmic sound waves that interfere with the vibro-sensors on the spider's legs sending it in a delirium of confusion as it suddenly thinks its juicy prey is coming from it at all directions just before it realizes that prey coming from all directions means that it is the actual prey... I love the look they get in their face as they realize that too late. It gets in all of their eight eyes.
