From: Tod69 Talamasca Last week, while about to enter a Client's Business, I spotted one of those big hairy brown spiders on the front door mat. I actually stopped & waited for it to move away. It did move a little, so I walked around it, watching it the whole time in case it decided to jump on me. Which would've been really really embarassing as I'd scream like a lil' girl.  Even worse was when I was sitting on the toilet, finished my bizness, stood up & one of those same types of spiders comes up from under the rim of the seat.  Luckily they're not known to bite humans, but anymore I use my foot to lift a toilet seat to check for spiders. Tod...all I can say is YIKES. Well, that's not true. I have a spider story, too. A while ago, when I was staying in Heidelberg, I came back to my house after being away for the weekend. I dragged my suitcase into my bedroom, turned on the light, and I did scream like a little girl. Well, more like a grown woman. There was a HUGE, and I emphasize the word HUGE, daddy long legs - looking spider on the wall. I kid you not, its diameter (leg to leg) was about 18 inches. I almost fainted from the shock, lol. FORTUNATELY, one of my house guests was quite comfortable around spiders, and she somehow managed to scoop up the beastie and take it outside. To this day, I have NO idea how that sucker got in the house. ewwww. Still raises the hair on the back of my neck!!!! |

I'm usually fine with spiders but 18" and hidden in the toilet are a bit extreme!
My creepiest bug story happened last year when my son and I were driving back from Mammoth overnight. My grandson was asleep in his car seat in the back, and my son was driving a rental car. When it got light I glanced down and saw a big cockroach on his thigh. It must have been in the car with us for hours - maybe since he rented the car 4 days earlier. *shudder* I had to grab it with a tissue and throw it out the window on the freeway. And avoid having it just blow back in.

I.hate.bees!!!! I hope you had clean underwear with you. Because the ones you had on probably weren't. Because...as Bill Cosby said....First you say it, then you do it.
