Hi, hello. My name is Jessica, and I'm sort of (deathly) scared of spiders. The following story is one that I can only hope I'll forget..but I know that's completely out of the question. Especially because I have evidence.
And the evidence is too funny not to share.
You see, the evidence is a sandwich all mayonaise down on the rug that I'm a freak about. Serious.
...
Kass and I woke up pretty early this morning, and started watching TV. Tummys started grumbling a few minutes later so we went into the kitchen to make the best sandwiches ever.
Pickles, cheese, and (the last of the) turkey. Yum!!
I grab a soda, and sit down on the *loveseat.
*Usually this is not the case. About 6 or so months ago, I went to sit on this couch and before sitting down, I simply moved the pillow to the side. Good thing I did because there was a spider in between the cushion of the couch and the pillow. Now, each time I sit on that couch, I do a spider check. Except for this time. :(
So, we're watching *The Voice*, and I say to Kass "Man, these sangwiches are delicious. Best ever!"
A few minutes later at the exact same moment, Kassi and I jump up! (We have spi-dar like cats have reflexes.)
*THERE WAS A SPIDER CRAWLING ON MY LEG!!!!*
Moments later the sandwich was flung, tears came flowing, I moved faster than I have in a long time, and I was rockin' some Olympic worthy knee touch foot stomp moves.
This lasted for a solid 5 minutes until Kassi came into the back room and said "Jess, I'm pretty sure he's a goner."
...
Now, the worst part of this story besides the fact that I wasted a pickle, had a spider crawling on my leg, and the mayonaise on my rug is the fact that:
*The spider is not dead, and is still somewhere in my living room.*
It's going to be a rough week avoiding that room. It's sort of a common place to hang out.
Oh, and if you're wondering about my empty tummy and turkeyless fridge, Kassi was nice enough to share her sandwich with me. :) Sisters are totally the greatest!

I'm so sorry, but LOL!!!!! I can just see you rockin' those Olympic moves and being in a state of pure franticness. Although, I AM truly sorry that you had tears, wasted a perfectly awesome sandwich and mayo'd your rug.
Good luck finding that critter. I hope you do so quickly. Tis the season for them to come out of hiding. UGH!!!!
