Ew, Spiders!

If Eric is home, he'll just give it one quick spray and watch it crawl around until it falls over (usually about 3 minutes). Me, I spray it until it stops moving and then some!

Okay, this thread has really made my skin feel all creepy crawly, so I think I'm going to take a two hour shower now.

Well, thanks to Steve's adventure I have been singing
some of the lyrics from Jim Stafford's, Spiders and Snakes, since 5 a.m.:

...I got silly and I found a frog
in the water by a hollow log
and I shook it at her
And I said, "this frog's for you."
She said,
"I don't like spiders and snakes
and that ain't what it takes
to love me
you fool, you fool -
I don't like spiders and snakes
and that ain't what it takes
to love me
like I want to be loved by you-ooo."
