Why Squish a Spider? 17 July 2008
When you can fry him in the dryer…
I open the dryer to shift the load of sheets from the washer and have to jump back 13.7 feet because there’s a BIG OL’ ugly spider staring back at me from the bottom of the dryer. Of course, wimpering, I sweetly point him out to The Warrior. Always willing and able to fight such battles for me, he sizes up the enemy and says, “I wonder what will happen if I leave him in there and turn the dryer on?”
Huh?
I thought you were going to slay the dragon…not experiment on it…
I leave the “lab”, but soon hear him call out from the other room: “Don’t worry, I got him! He’s totally FRIED and SHRIVELED!”
Yes, thank you, sweetie. I will call on you for all of my future spider-frying needs. You’re wonderful. I love you.
