Ew ew ew ew ew ew ewwww!
Ok, so I was just in my basement sweeping up the last of my tomato bushes (don't ask). Right outside the basement door is a little crack inbetween the bricks and the house. As I was sweeping towards the door, I noticed some movement, and I wasn't sure if it was a stink bug or a really big spider.
After ensuing investigation, I determined that it was, in fact, a REALLY HUGE SPIDER. Not just a spider, but a black widow! Seriously, that thing could have been diced in quarters and still been significantly huge spiders.
But as it was, this mostrous, LOTR-worthy thing was living right outside my basement door. Not for long! A can of spider killer (along with several choruses of "ew ew ew ew ew ew ewww") took care of that.
I had Kevin go down and look at it, and he offered to bring it up and pin it to our wall.
That's disgusting.
It is currently shrivelling up in its hole. May it rest in peace. And not spawn anything.

I was going to put a picture for everyone's viewing pleasure, but just looking at the first couple pictures on google images scared the heebie-jeebies out of me.
Hence, no picture.

My imagination is freaking me out just fine without a picture. EEEK!!

A dead spider would make a good Halloween decoration. But it's probably not worth it.
