When you look back at this, in the three seconds it'll take you to turn to dust, I think you'll find the mistake was touching my stuff.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

So, I"m sitting here, minding my own business, surfing the 'net on company time, when I feel something tickling my forehead. Like a hair has come loose. So brushat it with the back of my hand. And now it's tickling my hand. So I take a closer look, and I've got a wee grey spider dancing on my hand. It must have fallen on my head. Freaky.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Are you by chance sitting on a tuffett?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had a spider in my bathroom sink for days. Yes, it's kind of odd that I can use my sink and have a spider sit, dry, in a corner for days. Odder, though, I think is that it took that long to leave.

Or maybe it did leave and kept coming back -- how long would it take a spider to starve to death?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

-t, look up! I was watching the teevee one night when the same thing happened to me. Turns out? There was a spider egg on the ceiling I'd overlooked in cleaning. It had hatched, and there were dozens of tiny paratroopers rapelling down from the ceiling.

I'm not sure. I am sitting.

But I haven't eaten curds and whey in days.

(Eta: Eep! Thanks, Beverly. I don't see anything up there. Except another lightbulb is out.)

Ah, spider hatching season. When the extra periods in the sentence on your computer screen suddenly get up and wander off.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
