I'm ok either co-existing with or evicting spiders. Actually, I find them kinda cool. OK, so Shelob was a tad freaky, but I like to think that any bug larger than a Toyota Prius will freak out most people.

Bees/wasps/hornets on the other hand . . . uggggggh! Hate hate fear hate!

Wasps and hornets are nasty, but I like bees. Bees are normally pretty nice and docile (provided they're not part of an Africanized swarm). I've always found bees to be pretty fascinating.

Why is it that Dark Chocolate Hershey Kisses don't really taste like dark chocolate? It's downright discouraging, I tell you what. Even Hershey's Special Dark is a better approximation of dark chocolate.

back is just feeling tired. Which is ok. cause it means I sit alot.

Living in a basement apartment with an outside entrance has really helped my spider-appreciation along. They trap all the nasties that find their way in, and I thank them for it. I still destroy their webs whenever I'm cleaning, but I try to make sure I'm not killing them.

And I splatted on that was carrying a huge egg sac

OMG! I never get to do that. Okay, back to finish off 25 and catch up here.

The freshmen are here this week. They. Are. So. Cute.

I just want to hug them and tell them to not, you know, kill themselves.

I think we need to tell Jilli to skip like a little girl and not start the thread at the beginning.

Wow, I missed a lot of posts while raging in Natter.

I have no comment on spiders, except that I'm glad the only kind we seem to get here are the hopping trapdoor kind, which are actually kind of cute, and people-adverse.

In our house in Fairfax, they'd hatch in the attic over my bathroom every few months, and then invade my bathroom through the vent. I had a Maginot Line at the shower curtain. No showering with spiders. It's the whole reason I got laser eye surgery.
