You see, here is the problem. I love coffee, well, I love sugar and cream and I usually will put some coffee in there with it. (I am not yet a full man and able to drink it straight black, like Dan.) The only problem is that I only LOVE coffee during the winter time. For some reason it is not appealing when I am not cold. So I have not drank delicious coffee in several months. Anyway, I was working in my office and I was feeling a bit chilled so I thought, “I will go make me some wonderful coffee, it has been summer time and I have not had that wonderful stuff in a few months.” So, I went up stairs and made me some. I came back down stairs with my nice HOT coffee and before I had even taken a sip (for it was too hot) I start hearing this sort of clicking noise. It was not a big deal for me because I have a small Chihuahua dog name Audrey Hepburn, and I only assumed it was her running around upstairs like she so often does. Well, then I heard it some more and I just happened to look down and catch eyes with my faithful companion lying by my feet.
“Well, if she is lying by my feet then what could it be that I hear…rapping…rapping at my chamber door.” ”Tis some visitor,” I muttered, tapping at my chamber door………….Anyway………….NO!!!!…………..it was a huge spider!!!
Now, I normally don’t care about spiders……the deal is, around this house, I take care of the spiders and April takes care of the flying/stinging things, (bee’s, wasps etc) But this “thing of evil” is huge. I swear the picture doesn’t show it justice. So anyway….I place a big cup over the spider and wedge this Marilyn Monroe calendar I have between it and the wall. Then, I shimmy it down into the cup and keep the calendar over him so he can’t escaped…..and all is well……right? Well, it would have been but then, as I was taking it out of my office, I got upstairs and dropped the cup, the calendar and the spider on my bare feet. So, I kind of freaked. I kind of acted like a little girl for just a sec. (No offense girls) Anyway, I got it back into the cup after scurrying around for a while and then I put it into the freezer to freeze to death.
So anyway….after all that stupid stuff, I am sweating and my adrenaline is all crazy and now………..I am way too hot to drink my coffee. FAIL BLOG!
