I was right. There was another one hiding. It very nearly ran up my arm whilst I was sitting at the computer. I can feel little spidery legs everywhere. Everywhere.

I have to leave this room. I can see two spindly spiders in the corner and I just know there are more of them. Hiding.

I feel strongly that you could have deployed the cup/postcard combo that has served you so well in other close encounters of the spidery kind.

PS this is one of my favourite posts of yours ever and I have only just found it.

Heeeeeee.

Not sure which day it happened, but one day since reading your entry about the useless cats, I got to watch our youngest torture a small spider for an hour.

She bapped it with paws, she chased it under area rugs, she climbed on top of things so that she could pounce with more weight upon it on the floor. Her favorite type of torture: biting it and spitting it back out, watching it scurry and picking it up in her teeth… again.

She did this until the dang thing had no legs left. And then she just chewed it and spit it back out several times… becoming less amused each time. And then she walked away, bored.

The whole time, I was thinking, “Thwok you should head over to Cliff’s. He could use your services!”

Just had to share.
