I passed by a Canadian Tire today and decided to purchase a bug zapper racket ($6.99 plus tax).
Not less than 2 hours later upong returning home and testing it with some AA batteries, a large spider scurries out from under my backpack (which I had just used last night) and I freak out. It crawls under a bookshelf which I have to shimmy away from the wall, bug racket in hand. Shelob scurries out towards a darkened room where there's brown flooring and I freak out even more as I can't see the dark body of the spider as it blends into the laminate. I smash the floor maniacally with the bug zapper until I see sparks. I switch on the light and see the dead, motionless spider under the racket "mesh." I continue to fry that sucker until it smolders.
As my heart rate began to drop several minutes later, I start to understand why some people need to smoke cigarettes to calm their nerves. What a day.
Welcome to my domain. |
I used an empty cereal box to scoop it up. As you can see, if the legs were fully extended it'd be about 2 inches or more in diameter. |
