And you know what's grosser? A G-D spider INFESTATION.
Yes. We have one. And I'm so scared right now. I know there's a spider (or 12) lurking in every corner just waiting to pounce and suck my blood (spiders are vampires, right?).
No, but seriously I EM EFFING HATE SPIDERS. And the ones we have are HUGE - wolf spiders and other skinny, long-legged creepers. That bite us...while we sleep. Seriously, what could be scarier? Remember when you were a kid and didn't want to stretch your legs out in bed because you were afraid whatever was down there (spiders, snakes, jaws) would bite you?
Oh...that was just me?
Well this is 10x worse because there is ACTUALLY something to be afraid of. And, I have a spidey-sense, I swear. It's bizarre. The other night, I was sitting in the dark feeding Beau. All of a sudden I could just sense one near me. So I grabbed my phone, flicked on my handy-dandy flashlight app (second best app EVER) and scanned the room. And I saw not one, but TWO, giant spiders crawling down the wall towards the bed. I mean, I might be psychic because these things were definitely headed to suck some blood.
Oh, and don't even get me started on the effer that was under my clean laundry yesterday. Ughhhhh.
So, this is the problem with buying a fixer-upper. Overgrown shrubbery + old window screens that don't fit right = major spider infestation. We thankfully have an exterminator coming tomorrow and most of the windows have been replaced, so hopefully this will take care of the problem.
If you don't hear from me for awhile, I'm pretty sure I'll be lying, bloodless, in bed because the vampire spiders got me.
Prayers welcome.
Here's our blurry, "Oh-No-It's-A-Spider!" picture.
It made me itchy just reading that. The wolf spiders are big this year and wow are there a lot of them, luckily for me they are on the outside of the windows. I do not envy you at all.
