Getting into the shower this morning I saw a fuzzy black blob by the ceiling. I grabbed my glasses for a closer inspection and it was a SPIDER!!!! AHHHH!!! Lloyd has a spider bite from a few days ago and I bet this is the villain. Look at her swollen belly – filled with Lloyd’s old blood and probably hundreds of tiny spider/Lloyd hybrid babies. It’s tough to wash your hair when your head is fixed so your eyes stay fixed in one spot.
Even though I dislike spiders, I don’t think they should die – even though this one is an obvious peeping tom. (Tomette? Tometto? Tomahto? Too far, huh?) Lloyd deftly caught it in my toothbrush holder and took ‘er outside.
By the way, when you’ve showered with a spider, for the whole rest of the day every little dark speck you see will startle you.
Gah! Lint!
This makes me think of a book I frequently read as a kid. Did we own it? We must have, for how often I read it.
It was called “Be Nice to Spiders”

Wait a minute… I was looking at that picture and comparing Lloyd’s finger to the spider. It looks to be one fourth the size of his fingernail. It’s TINY.
You are mistaken. It is as big as a cat and has flaming red eyes and huge fangs.
I was looking at the size of Lloyd’s nose….
It’s not my nose. It’s a false one.
Will you decontaminate your toothbrush holder or trash it?
We’ll see how the hybrid babies turn out. If cute -- decontaminate.
Oh Lauren…you are the brave one! I could never have taken a shower with that hairy thing in there! (the spider I mean)
Hey, where’d my comment go?
I turned on a light in my bathroom and there was a CENTIPEDE as big as my PINKEY next to my HAND……
GAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAA
