When was the last time you were terrorized when you were in the shower, defenseless, ?

Oh you guys. It took me 20 minutes to even get up the guts to post this. I turned on the shower, noticed it wasn’t draining very well. Removed a scrubbing pad (that I use for spot-scrubbing the tub when I’m doing other things, like getting my hair wet) from the drain. Got in the shower. Noticed it was still slick, not draining. So I did what I’ve done a thousand times…dragged my toes over the drain to pull up the “hair ball” that tends to develop there. It was a pretty substantial hair ball, so I grabbed it with my toes, as I often do, (shut up with the prehensile toes jokes…not yet, please!) and frew it at the far end of the tub. However, it seemed to want to move faster than normal back toward the drain. So, while scrubbing my hair, I grabbed it again, with my toes, and frew it against the back of the tub….where it caught my attention…as it slid back down toward the water…as it washed passed me I bent down to look closer. It wasn’t a hair ball. It was one of the biggest freakin’ recluse spiders I’ve ever seen. Dead, drowned I assumed. I managed to finish my shower at the OPPOSITE end of the tub, while keeping a freaky eye on it. When I was done I THREW the shower curtain open and fell out.

Trying not to imagine my foot starting to swell and throb. Oh, guys….it was horrible…. :( ....
