Spider revisited.

Aug 26, 2009 07:30

Ya'll might remember a night a few months ago where I battled for my immortal soul with a spider from Hell? Well, after spraying every surface of my living space, I enjoyed a few months of spider free living. 3-4 months, to be exact, thank you Raid.

This morning, bleary-eyed and contemplating whether or not it was completely necessary to brush my hair before work* I walked into a haunting revisiting of times past. You see, one of the scariest things about spiders, aside from their freakish body proportions and supernatural speed, is that they can defy the very laws of physics. You know what happens if I try to hang out sideways on walls? I look like an idiot. Spiders, the crafty bastards, can hang out sideways, upside down, at like an angle with only one foot while they prepare to spring at you. Terrifying. I will find another place to sleep in the hopes of not having to deal with a spider.

Alas, it is hard to do bathroom-things if you aren't in that room. So, instead of revisiting all of my old mistakes - try to kill it with a kleenax in hand. Try to spray it with disinfectant and prayers. Building a fort to keep it at bay...

Grabbed a can of Raid and killed that sucker in one go. It was grotesque to watch but it turns out that, yes, I do have to brush my hair before work.

*My hair is about a foot and a half long now. Hangs well past my shoulders. If I don't brush it I look like book-Hermione. So, in the interest of professionalism, it had to happen. Also in the interest of professionalism, I need to go to work now so I'm not late. Ta!
