Spiders
Mike and I have an ongoing debate about the presence or absence of spiders in his apartment. I say that the basement to his place is so creepy that it's got to be home to hundreds of arachnids, but he maintains that he's never seen anything but cobwebs.
This morning I woke up before Mike did, as I ususally do, and got out of bed to let him sleep some more. I wandered into the bathroom to brush my teeth and grab the copy of Entertainment Weekly with the "Snakes on a Plane" article and saw a daddy longlegs.
One of the big ones.
It had made a web by the shower curtain and was just sitting there, being sinister. I backed out of the bathroom hurriedly. Now not only do I have to adjust to the absolute knowledge that Mike's apartment contains spiders, I also have to go to the bathroom. And Mike won't be up for two hours! Damn. Maybe I'll walk to the gas station or something.
So, in the debate about spiders, I know I definitely win. Well, if you call having your fiance's apartment infested with arachnids "winning."
Damn. I hate spiders.

1. wake him up to deliver said spider to the great outdoors.
2. cobwebs are spider webs. a spider makes one web per day, or until an insect messes it up then it makes a new one. so, if he dusts away the webs and more come back, he's got spiders.
3. i don't mind spiders. i do the catch and release thing because i know they eat the dreaded mosquitoes. however, i don't go into their bedroom and they don't go into mine. they can kill me if i'm in their bedroom and they're fair game if they're in mine...but i still tend to do the catch and release thing.
4. see if you can find the spaces where they may be making their entrance to the house and get josef to block them up.
