Creepy Crawly Attack II
Friday night, 9\11\09
Whew! it shore was felt good to shower after getting in all that smoke!! After we had finished playing with fire and roasting marsh mellows in the fire pit my brother, THC, her mom, and I all decided we defiantly needed to wash up! I think I had just finished taking a shower down stairs and then going up stair to brush my teeth, when I slowly and carefully waddled down the soft, wooden steps. Step, by step, by step, by step, by step, by step,... I can remember clearly thinking of my really really sore feet and legs and knees when finally, I remember turning to the right and stepping of the last of the stairs. It seams like it went in slow motion as I started to turn my head, preparing to go sharp right, when my very own eyes detected something that was strung out, gray and black, very fuzzy and less than 12 inches away from my foot! I knew from very previous encounters exactly what it was. Yup, you got it, a HUGE ( or so it seamed huge ) spider was right there in the corner! It stood very still and looked like a cross between a Daddy long leg and a Tarantula, with long, and spaced out legs. The first thing I did was yell WHOA!! THERE IS A HUGE SPIDER RIGHT HERE!!!!!! and at the same time jump on the edge of the couch where THC joined me. Right after I said that did my mom and THC's mom come running to see what I was talking about. The spider hadn't moved and my guess now would be that he was as scared as me! I was still sitting on the couch which my brother had been sitting on before me when Mom said, "Wow! that is one big spider" and I'm shore the rest of us agreed! Unfortunately, Dad had just gotten in the shower so THC's mom got a fly swatter and the box that we had put all the trash that we could burn in the fire. The box was empty so she ( THC's mom ) put it on the ground in front of the spider, then attempted to tempt it into thinking the box was safe by using the fly swatter. I was afraid that the little guy would go in to the small crack in the wood behind him! But before you knew it he went into the box!! Once it was in, THC's mom tipped the box right side up and you could hear the spider's legs scampering about in the box so loud that a person might think a small rat was inside it! We opened the door and pushed the box closer and closer to it. ( It's probably a good thing the door is so close the the stairs because I think the spider could have crawled out if we had let him ) The next think you knew was that THC's mom had gently tossed the box onto the porch. But one thing went wrong! the box had landed with the open side facing the door, and the spider was running as quick as anything to the open doorway!!! "Ahhh!" we screamed. SLAM went the door! About five seconds after that we all started cracking up. THC's mom explained how she meant to toss the box facing the opposite direction. Then, I was told to finish getting ready for bed, and then get in bed and watch the movie me and THC had picked to watch.
