Near Death Experiences

ZOMG.
I am currently trying to catch my breath here. I was just sitting at my desk, typing away, when suddenly.. movement! On my desk!!! WHAT THE!?!??? Nothing on my desk should be moving!! NOTHING. I look over, and AUGH! This hugely disgusting yellow spider darts for my hand! I swear my head touched the ceiling, I jumped so high. I hate spiders. HATE HATE HATE spiders. You want heebiejeebies, you put a spider (alive OR dead) in my vicinity. The Whistler asked me what the heck happened, and he laughed when I told him about this vicious, nasty beast making free with my workspace! Well, we couldn't have that! So I grabbed some paper towel, mustered my courage, and WHAM!
That's right, Mr. Spider, who's alive and who's a squashed, ooky mess now, huh?? That's what I thought! You just tell all of your buddies who's the bad mother trucker around here, all right? I don't want to see you or anyone you know in my space again, or you'll get more of what you just got, you hear me?! Back off buddy, there's a Dragoness in the house, and she's a lean, mean squashing machine. Oh yeah.

I"m glad you got that icky old spider. I'm the spider smasher here. If Skittles sees one, or a bug, she yells for me lol.

ALL RIGHT - you go girl!!! I'm right behind you.....there's no way, I'm getting near those 8 legged terrorists.... thanks for cleaning up the world - well, your desk anyway!

Rachel Schell said...

I would have done the same thing !! spiders give me the creeps...well most bugs for that matter give me the creeps. I'm ok as long as they don't try to crawl on me or anything near me.

DirkStar said...

LOL!

Oh you brave soul! How great your courage must have been to smite such an ickey beast.

Well, I am glad to know that there is one less evil in the world to fear now, thanks to you!

I really don't care for spiders either, but did you know that the typical human ingests about 8 spiders in their lifetime when they are asleep. Eww!

Kiyotoe said...

that's impressive Dragoness. Most women wouldn't dare attempt such a nasty move.

You give Dragons a good name sista.

You've been TAGGED with the Five Questions Interview Game!

I always tell my girly that she's over a couple of hundred times bigger than any spider, and if she can't win a fight on those terms, then she's in trouble.

I still remove spiders for her though, cos she really, really doesn't like them. :)

I prefer to stay away from the eight legged freaks. I usually suck them up in the vaccuum cleaner and put the vaccuum cleaner outside so they can't climb out inside the house ;)

I know several people who have as much a dislike of spiders as you do. In my house, we just capture them and deport them to the outdoors!

Ooooh nooooo.... poor spider! I understand, though. Cockroaches COMPLETELY do me in!

This is still scary! Happy Carnival!

Desert Songbird said...

Again, another husband finds it amusing when when the wife screams in terror - what is it about men?

Glad you got that creepy little thing! (the spider, I mean...)
