The itsy bitsy spider...

When I went in the bathroom just now to brush my teeth I spotted a spider crawling around the back of the sink. This doesn't really come as a surprise to me, this house is crawling with spiders, almost like we're stuck an a bad arachnophobia rerun. I pretty much have a live and let live thing with spiders. As long as they don't trespass onto my body, or into my reach I ignore them, unless Jen makes me kill them.

This one was in my way, so with a casual flick of my wrist I sent him down the drain. Then to make things better for him, I turned on the hot water and let it run until it was steaming. While most spiders can swim, very few of them can dive under water, which means more then likely this one was stuck at the top of the grease trap and unable to avoid the near boiling water falling on his head.

To top things off, after brushing my teeth I spit a giant mouth full of mouth wash down the drain. I'm considering running into the garage for the Raid and dumping that down the drain also.
