Tip of the Day: You will wake up much quicker from the discovery of a spider crawling out of your hair/off of your face than if you were to inject 4 espresso shots directly into your veins.
In some people's eyes, it would have been a good thing that it was just a spindly daddy long leg type spider...but to me, it was a SPIDER!! I woke up and thought that a hair ball fell out of my hair as I picked my face up from the direct spot on the pillow where the spindly little devil was! With his legs he was actually bigger than a coin so it wasn't the best wake up call!
Do you want to have an "ACKKK" contest? I posted this on Elisa's blog March 1st:
I have been having a "Melynda" morning. My blood sugar dropped about 3:00am & I couldn't get back to sleep until about 4:00. I woke up about 9:00 & went potty, & went potty, & went potty--for almost another hour! Finally got upstairs, woke up my computer & brushed my hand against my hair--& a bee flew out of it! I just called my husband on the intercom & asked him if this was the day he was going to tell me he wanted a divorce, which would have completed my wonderful day--he said, "Not today!" ALL TRUE!!
That sounds like something that would happen to my mom in law! She could hide a family of rats in her hair! (and yes, I'm totally jealous of her amazing curly locks!)
I about did both! Thankfully I did sleep last night but I did wake up about every couple of hours thinking I would see another spider on my pillow...eeeeee!!
Thanks for the tip. Which reminds me of 1994 when I spent two weeks in Greece. My then girlfriend woke me up in the middle of the night believing there to be some kind of insect in the room. I switched on the lights and the ceiling was covered in spiders. As in 500 hundred at least. Sleep tight!
That sounds like my worst nightmare on mushrooms!!! I really don't think anything on earth could be more terrifying!!! Crap, and I always wanted to go to Greece...
Arrrrrrrgh! I have a lizard lurking in my living room. The last time I saw him he darted under the piano, which I can't move alone. I'm so afraid he'll creep under my bedroom door and end up in bed with me, whispering, "How 'bout a little lizard lovin', lady?". Waaaaaah.
Hahahaha! We had a lizard in our cottage in Kauai who I named Gus. He was cute and I liked him because he was supposed to eat spiders! I didn't realize he'd try to give lizard lovin too ;) hahahah
Ack!
ReplyDeleteA noise similar to that managed to get out of my groggy head!
DeleteNow I want espresso.
ReplyDeleteCan you get them with redbull?
DeleteNo truer words were ever spoken, my friend. As much as it will traumatize me, I feel as though I need more details on that story.

DeleteThe truth in these words made me cry (and cringe). You are a genius~

DeleteAs I read on a friends Facebook wall the other day, "Seeing a spider isn't a problem. It becomes a problem when it disappears."
ReplyDeleteFor me, seeing a spider creates hysterics and when it disappears creates a heart attack!
DeleteThe spiders are just trying to say hello!
ReplyDeleteI so do not like spiders. We get them all the time...the big, quarter sized ones!
ReplyDeleteOh, you just make my day. I love the laugh I get when I read your posts. I hate spiders too, but you have such a great way of putting it.
