Scary Shower
This morning I woke up, went for my walk, put Parker down for a nap, finished my workout, and then hopped in the shower when to my horror I saw a DADDY LONG LEGS in the upper corner of the shower!!! This is the worst spider situation known to man. Reasons being: the spider is too high to splash with water and run down the drain and you are wet/naked which makes it difficult to make a mad dash and/or call for help! In realizing that I didn't have many options as far as eliminating the spider I decided to cautiously continue with my shower. As I did, I made sure that I kept my eye on the huge, disgusting insect and felt a shot of panic when I realized I would need to close my eyes at one point or risk stinging soap syndrome. With a deep breath and as much courage as I could muster I closed my eyes and quickly opened them only to find that the spider was not up in the corner!!! He had decided to join me in the shower! After a brief scream, miraculously not waking up Parker, I used my super human powers to wash the Daddy Long Legs down the drain and to his death! Woohoo! I made it out of the shower alive today!

I loved your story! You do tell a great one! :)
And just for my own curiosity, did you know that daddy long legs mouths aren't actually big enough to bite you? My dad always used to tell me that... It did NOT EVER make me feel ANY better!!! Something about the long creepy legs... EEWWWW!!!!
LOve you,

I totally feel your pain! Spiders are the most disgusting creatures ever. I was on a pay phone once in taiwan outside a 7-11 and when i looked over my shoulder there was a huge spider on the wall of the building about 3 feet from my face! It was as big as my hand! I screamed like a little girl and just dropped the phone. but being naked in the shower is 10X worse!
