In fact I'd say it goes from the insect category to animal due to it's size. I'd have a hard time as well. I have so many spiders in my house they have become my pets. I've started naming them. I'll be sad when the Springer pest solution starts working and they die. I had a baby spider crawling on me yesterday. oh well. <br /><br />LJ - thanks for the cat hair comment. I had a hunkering to get a cat after my nieces leave town (though watching cats being tortured by annoyance is one of my favorite things), but you've cured that with thoughts of inhaling cat hair in my sleep.sharlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14059477830000193402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4264723507283193746.post-14221492784330218882011-07-21T11:57:40.816-05:002011-07-21T11:57:40.816-05:00I feel so fucking crawly right now.

I also thought about using a lighter and turning my starting fluid into a flamethrower (it works, trust me) but that seemed overly cruel. I was telling my friend at work yesterday that tarantellas aren't quite as scary for some reason. Maybe cuz they don't jump. <br /><br />Andrew, I know. Me too.

Women's razor in the shower? Bubble bath stuff in the bathroom? Oh wait- I already have all those. <br />And I already covered Leaf in an earlier post- that's all he gets.

We used to have wild TARANTULAS by our house in San Antonio. Sometimes you could spot them in the middle of the road and when you ran them over they would make a big squish. Most satisfying sound ever. The car is deffo my weapon of choice. You should have just ran into the house with your wheels.

And whilst the epic 10 lb weight droppage was happening, I was curled up in his chair, looking at the door with his 2 cats, and we were all thinking..."One of them is coming back in. Alive. I hope it's Caleb."<br /><br />The cats had doubts. I did not. ;)<br /><br />"You're Lucky" ~ I did the SAME paranoid dance all night long. It doesn't help that his cats (plural), black cats (not racist), shed ALL OVER.
