SPIDERWOMAN

“I’ve hated creepy-crawlies since I was a little boy, but when I moved in with my girlfriend for the weekend, I didn’t want to sound like a wuss by telling her how much they scared me. One morning, I was brushing my teeth when I looked up at the mirror and I spotted a huge spider right behind me. I wanted to scream, but instead, I slowly backed out of the bathroom, ran down the stairs, and finished brushing my teeth in the downstairs bathroom. A couple of hours later, my girlfriend went in to use the shower, and screamed her head off when she saw the spider—then had to get rid of it herself. I crept upstairs moments later and explained how sorry I was that I hadn’t been there to help her get rid of it—she totally believed me!”
