Spider in My Hair

Wasn't I just commenting on how I needed a haircut? Well, apparently a little critter decided to take up residence in my long tresses. I was cleaning the bathroom sink, when I happened to glance down at some strands of hair that were hanging over my shoulder. I had to take a second look, because what I saw was small and brown, and it had legs. Then it started scurrying up a piece of hair, like it was a web, or something. It was an itsy bitsy spider, the same color as my hair! "Aghhh!" I yelled. I quickly brushed that thing out of my hair and into the sink. Then I turned on the water, and flushed it down the drain (please don't call the animal protective agency to report me. It was self defense - I swear!) I'm thinking that little guy must've hitched a ride when I was outside weeding. My hair must've looked like the perfect camoflauge. So tomorrow, I'm getting a haircut. Hopefully there are no spider brothers and sisters hiding out in my hair . I don't need any more pets!

  2. Eek! I'm a bit paranoid of spiders now. My mom was bitten on her temple earlier this year and she had a reaction to it. Her head swelled up like a mushroom! Since I react the same way as she does to wasp stings, I don't want to find out what happens if a spider bit me!

  3. Blech! Now I'm going to spend the day paranoingly (oh look, I made up a word) running my fingers through my hair worried I'll find something with legs.
