I conquered the ducks. First there was the dryer duck. Ok...duct....whatever...it was just ducky. My dryer wasn't drying clothes. I was finding water on the floor in the basement and it was dripping from the dryer duck. So....time to clean out the duck. That's a dirty, icky job made worse by the fact that all of the duck work goes through spider city....my favorite place to be. I started at one end of the duck work and worked my way through the basement, then replaced the vent on the outside of the house (cause it was OLD and UGLY and bent up and stuff). I had a few problems along the way...learning how to piece the duck together and how to get that piece out of the wall and how to tape it when it's right up against dark, cobwebby corners and my skin is crawling. I wanted to give up several times, but I can't go long without a dryer. In fact...I really need to wash clothes NOW. I need to move the dryer out and check the end closest to the dryer, but the rest of the duck work looks just wunnerful and it's all been scraped and vacuumed out. Did I mention I also conquered...although did not master...the quacky tape? Ok...I prolly wasted about ten feet of it. Did anyone ever mention that stuff really sticks good? Not only to itself but to your hair and your skin and all kinds of things around you. However....I managed to duck tape all the duck work and now that stuff is all ducky. When you get into places you are uncomfortable, do you find yourself talking to yourself? I was definitely doing that. It went something like this..... Oh my gosh....there are cobwebs down here. You big baby. I am....baby, baby, baby. I don't want to play in the cobwebs. Remember...spiders are our brothers. Remember to go feck yerself. Testy aren't we? I don't want to play in the cobwebs. Get the shop vac. Ooooh....the big one. Oh yeah...I can eliminate cobwebs. There you go...you big baby.....did ya get all the cobwebs? I think so...but that duck work is over the shelves...there could be spiders on the shelves. Yep. There could be spiders in your hair. Do you feel that ooky crawly feeling on your scalp? It's a great big spider crawling all over you. Not a spider, not a spider, not a spider....oh ick....my skin's starting to feel crawly. It's all the spiders down here. I can do this. Go ahead...lean against the shelf. There are spiders under it. You aren't helping any. Was I supposed to? Do you feel that brush on the back of your neck? It's not really one of the cables....it's a spider that landed on your neck. It's a cable. I hate all these cables everywhere. I can't move without brushing against them. And they all have spiders on them. Stop it. Spiders.....ooooh....you came into spider city. Did you look into the spider room? Why would I want to do that? Go look. Ick....it's just all full of cobwebbies.... And they all have spiders who have left their cobwebs and are heading this way. You know....some days...talking to you really sucks. I know...fun, isn't it? And just think....in a couple of weeks you'll be working down here....cleaning....in the middle of all the spiders. I'll have murdered you long before that. Dreamer. ****************************************** I think I'll go take a shower and make SURE I don't have any spiders in my hair.....see ya.... Feel the passion, walk in peace, live in love....Ari

You should have seen the arthropod I came across last week.A Brown Recluse was hiding in my garden shed last week. I was really quite intrigued. This is the second one I have seen up close, they are really quite rare here. I wouldn't have been much help, Sis. You know how much I love spiders. I would have been busy studying the cobwebs. I don't play it safe. If I wanted to stay safe.. I would have stayed in my mother's womb.
