A former friend of mine once put a six inch rubber tarantula in my shower. That was the start of the end of our friendship.

Yeah, no kidding. If someone had done that to Jilli, it would have been the start of something, probably a murder investigation.

How do you feel about giant flying roaches, Pete?

The very thought of them makes me squirm.

I have made Mr. Jane come running in a room wearing nothing but his birthday suit and swinging a tennis shoe because of those things more times than I can count.

It's one of the (admittedly many) reasons I can't imagine being married to anyone else.

Thanks for the birthday wishes, all, and especially Aimee for the AWESOME birthday song!

SOUNDS LIKE MY DATES!

heh

I have no problems with (most, normal sized for my region) spiders but things with too many legs. eeeeshhhhhh!

Spiders don't bother me like they used to. We have one living between the posts on our front porch-actually that one replaced the one that was there last summer that I began to think of as a pet. She ended up 2 legs short by the end of the summer.

Giant flying roaches on the other hand can fuck right the hell off.

Can I have some -ma for TCG's step-grandmother? I just found out she's in the hospital with pneumonia and she had a mild heart attack.

~~~ma for TCG & his family. Grandparents in the hospital is always scary.

On my first trip to San Diego I was chased through an open-air shopping mall by a very large flying insect which I later discovered was a dune bug. They are apparently harmless but I think that's just a good cover story for a really frikkin' big insect.
