Dear Spiders,

Please stop doing the "drop and dangle" over my bed. It freaks me out, causes Prime to panic and results in some pretty nasty deaths for you and your brethren. If you guys have any sense (common, spider, or otherwise) whatsoever, you'll freaking stop this stupidity, all right?

Sincerely,

--The (very) Freaked-Out Weasel

Normally, I don't mind them, but over the bed is kinda dicey. The last thing I need is an irritated spider skittering through the bed clothes. (High chance of being bitten.)

It's weird. We'll get a daddy longlegs and it'll stay in a lone corner, never moving. The smaller spiders want to run around. Weird.

So, how are things in Cali? Heard about that little explosion and it got me a little concerned.

could be worse. We found a centipede in our shower yesterday morning. A BIG centipede. I guess it needed to wash its hair or something.

One of the hazards of livin out in the sticks, all kinda creepy crawlies come to visit. ;)

Needless to say, it went outside. I keep a lil jar handy for just such emergancies.

Now that would freak me the hell out. There's something about centipedes that just drives me nuts. And I don't really know why.

That explosion was in San Bruno, which I'm a long ways away from...

Since my job ended, I'm seeking new employment. The job market being what it is, it's taking quite a while. I am going to an job fair tomorrow. Hope my chances are better there. :)

Good to know. Seems like everytime I hear about something happening in Cali, I start thinking, "Is DA okay?" (Yes, I happen to worry. It drives Prime nuts.)

Good luck with the job fair. Here's hoping you can find... something. (But for the love of Primus, don't let it be retail!)

Eh, maybe centipedes freak you out, cause they have more legs than ought to be allowed by law.

(And WAAYYY too many legs to be hanging out in the house!)

I say, if you aren't helping with the rent, food, or other necessities, it's out in da woods with you!

X-D

Creepy crawly,
Me

Yeah, some of those friggin' bugs ain't nothin' but freeloaders. Kick 'em out!

Roaches, however, should be smashed with extreme prejudice. (I hate those things. Oh man, I hate those things...)

Kraneia said...

Roaches? Yeah, I guess. Those haven't been too much of a problem here, at least not the kind that live in houses. The woodland type cockroachs show up occasionally, but they're just confused.

We actually have more of a problem with TICKS. Yes, you read that right. We find them on the kichen floor, on the front door, and on the shower door (what is is with things with too many legs in our bathroom?!) Those die a special death--in a small spice canister filled with rubbing alcohol....

With ticks, I think I'd use gasoline and a match. I am evil when it comes to those little bloodsuckers. >:]
