this weekend my sister-in-law mary and i were sitting on my bed watching a movie.
and then i saw a little yuk running along the walls.
of course it was a spider, i live in the basement.
and it just hung on my ceiling, listening to us talk.
and mary was just fine, flattered even.
and i couldn't take it.
she finally grabbed my (NEW) shirt and swapped it to the floor.
and said, "it's just a little charlotte."
and then i kinda felt bad because i love charlotte and how she saved wilbur.
but i was still grossed out!
i hate bugs, and spiders are terribly ugly and there's no way i can sleep knowing there's one crawling around in my room!
well, sweet mary pretended to scoop it up on the piece of paper and gently shoo it out of my room.
and even though i knew she was playing pretend, it DID make me feel a lot better.
so today when i found a spider crawling along the shower wall i EEEK'ed and then grabbed some toilet paper and almost squished it but then remembered...
"it's just a little charlotte."
after standing in the tub for 10 minutes debating and weighing my options...
i killed it.
"it's just a charlotte" simply won't do.

Hahaha! I am glad you killed it. Uck. I can't handle spiders.
ReplyDeleteamen! im the only mom at the park who is a proponent of smushing spiders. :) i reason they are just going to go have spider babies and that is the last thing the world needs, MORE spiders! also i think jack has a crush on you. any time i pull up your blog he comes over and points and stares all quiet at your picture at the top of your page. hah. :) who can blame him!
ReplyDeleteoh brittany you crack me up!!! I miss you, i think its time we do something!!
ReplyDeleteeeewwwwww, I hate spiders too! I recently found one in my bed when I was already in it and just this morning I found a huge one on my pants that I was already wearing. I may or may not have screamed.
