Apparently tonight was the night for Giant Goddamned Spiders. I just found one a few minutes ago, right as I was about to go to bed, on my bedroom floor. This one was about the size of a nickel, counting its legs; yours may have been bigger, but around here, that still counts as a Giant Goddamned Spider. After I scrambled into my nightgown (I was still getting changed when I spotted it; there's something that'll make you feel vulnerable) and putting my hair into a quick ponytail, I found a glass candle-cup to drop over it, and then went to find a piece of cardboard to slip underneath to trap it. Said GGS is now sitting, still trapped (because I wasn't brave enough to release it), on the back porch.

*shudder*

Now I need to try to convince myself that it was the only one, shake out my sheets about four times, and then try to go to sleep. Heh. Sleep. Yeah...
