deird_ljIf I ever get married, my husband's main duty will be dealing with spiders who want to eat me.
...in completely unrelated news, my housemate's boyfriend is a wonderful guy of wonderfulness, because he came and rescued me from a huge spider on my bedroom ceiling last night, while I sat huddled on my bed and shrieked.

When an Australian starts talking about a "huge spider" that's capable of "eating her", I take it completely 100% literally. And there's no way I'd be the one to come and rescue you unless I have one of these things:

My parents are currently being highly unsympathetic and are refusing to remove spiders for me. Although I'm sure the spiders here aren't anywhere near as bad as the ones that you could encounter.

I think it was more a question about what kind of spider I had on my ceiling - since I didn't say.

Btw- was it a huntsman?

Date: 2009-09-30 12:08 am (UTC)Was it seriously that big??? Cause...AHHHHH.
I get freaked out by regular-sized spiders. I think I would spontaneously DIE if anything bigger than my thumb or whatever came waltzing around.
Seriously. There was a moth in my bathroom and I avoided it for like a week, trying to make it not fly around the room, but it did whenever I moved and it was SCARY.

Date: 2009-09-30 12:36 am (UTC)I'm so freaked out by bugs that I always made my little sister take care of them. I love my sister enough to go diving into a hellgod-opened portal to save her from having to die after giving her a meaningful speech about how the hardest thing in this world is to live in it...but when bugs attack, she's on her own.
I'm glad you had someone to rescue you!

Date: 2009-09-30 07:29 am (UTC)But yeah - huntsmen spiders are scarily large. Don't think it was one of them, though...
