Ahhh- the joy of living alone...

Last night as I was unlocking my apartment door, there was no denying that I walked into a huge spider web. I stepped back flailing my arms about and checking myself to make sure the spider wasnt crawling on me.
Well thank God it wasnt because after I regained my composure and saw that the spider was still on the part of his web that I didnt wreck, I noticed how huge that spider was. It has to be the biggest spider I have ever seen. Seriously this sucker was HUGE! Anyway, my only option was to do a duck and run and get into my apartment or I would have to sleep in my car...which believe me, I contemplated. Well this morning as I opened my door, I was hoping to see that the spider decided to make his home elsewhere. ...no such luck. Instead, he had made an even bigger web covering my whole door and he was hanging right in the middle of it at eye level. YIKES!
Did I mention that I really really really HATE spiders. So as I slammed my door shut and started to panick thinking I could never leave my apartment again, I had the bright idea that since I DO live in an apartment complex that has maintence men, they can come and take care of it. That is included in my rent right? So that is exactly what I did. I called the office and after the manager had a good laugh about it, she sympathized and said she would do the same thing and she would send someone right away. Thanks to the maintence guy who took care of it for me and then proceeded to tell me 3 more stories of these infamous spiders that are around this complex. I am not sure I will be getting much sleep from here on out.

I know. I actually felt bad about that because I really just wanted the spider to be moved to another location, but I wasnt going to be the one to do it, so oh well...I guess my spider karma will be off for awhile.

Um.. so maybe we can just hang out at my place.
I would have totally spent the night in my car!!
You need to invest in a bottle of Raid, or rat poison by the sounds of that sucker!
I sympathize my fellow arachnaphobe!!
