Well...dang.
In the span of five magical seconds, I successfully deleted every single comment to my previous entry. Behold my super-sexy LiveJournal savvy. So! Retrieved from email, in accordance with my vow to be a better commenter:plainmabel: The UPS man was very accommodating and did, in fact, enter into my living room and dispose of the offending spider. Whether this went against UPS policy or not remains unknown; however, only a cold-hearted bastard would have left me alone in my spider-fueled hysteria.valeriezam: In my book ("The Collected Works of Rachel Dean, Volume I: Buggies Suck"), ants are on par with spiders, because they run in packs and eat my sugar. And I'm quite fond of my sugar. Sympathies, madame.aprotean: Ugh...your Chris story has added to my pre-existing crazy cat-lady paranoia. Poor kittenhead. Sigh...I guess this means that Rachel will be prying said spider-parts from NSP's jaws during future feasts, lest my boy fall victim to bug-induced cooties. Dude. Gross.mylovemydarling: Sold. As soon as I find $15, that bug-gun is mine. On an unrelated note: You wouldn't know it from the lack of commenting, but I really am enjoying your entries these days. Seriously, those mad writing skillz are humbling.fanglord2: Poor Joe...I definitely sympathize with his spider hallucinations. I am relieved to know that I'm not the only crazy one out there. As for spider crickets: Their legs are much longer (thus the comparison with a spider) and they jump. Very high. Terrifying little bastards.lauren_urban: I encountered my first roach about a year ago. Apparently, those fucks are jumpers, as well. (Cue reflexive shaking-out of hair.)nakedfotolady: I have a plug-in in my kitchen, but may have to invest in more. Like, one for every outlet in my damn apartment. Ugh. Unrelated: Knitting? Hampden? Someday?minkey_winks: COME BACK TO ME!Arguably, I have too much time on my hands.
