Do all men think this way?

I'm sitting on the couch, dh is on the computer. Ddil comes in and says to me "What's that behind your head?" (Not something I like to hear, btw)

I jump up screaming, ducking for cover, goose bumps running down my spine. The dog and cat take off for higher ground. I grab my spider killer, (Spider killer: swifter duster with extendable wand.) which I keep in reach at all times. Dh is still sitting calmly at the computer. I turn around and sure enough there is a spider the size of Rhode Island on the wall where my head was just a second ago.

My first thought is too smash that sucker into tomorrow.

His first thought is "Don't mess up the paint!"

Don't mess up the paint?

What?? :confused3

See,I would gently pick up the spider in some tissue and place him outside.

Oh and on behalf of the great state of Rhode Island, we are certainly bigger than a spider :teeth:

I would be taking that tissue you are referring to to wipe my hiney if it were indeed a spider the size of RI! :scared1:

unfortunately, my DH would have been just as afraid of the spider as I was! :rotfl:

All spiders in the house must die a painful yet quick death by squishing. :scared1:

I'll use touch up for the paint!

spazzyjazzy · Oct 17, 2006

My husband would have said "Don't hurt it!!! Let me get it and put it outside" I would have been screaming bloody murder.

Well, TEVA, my DH would have said...."Oh, I thought you knew it was there"...yup ::yes::

that is what my engineering nerdy computer geek DH would have said...and I, as well, would have wanted to "smash it into tomorrow" for sure. :scared1:

But I would not have given him a chance to say another thing because I would be screaming bloody murder to him...."GET :furious:

Four letters... P.E.T.A.

And yeah, I know it stands for People Eating Tasty Animals, so don't go that route with me!

I don't trust him. I make him show me their corpses when he does kill them. He would have missed him or just swished him and then I wouldn't know where it was. He wouldn't care, he was leaving for work.

This would be me all night..

DH is the spider capturer in this house. Have you seen those new POM teas available in the fruit case? He has a cleaned one on each floor for spider capture and release. He is very adamant that the spiders get to go outside.

This morning though, he had a change of heart when he pulled back the shower curtain to find a GIANT spider making its way down the opening to the shower stall. That spider met his maker via squashed tissue and flush.

I did not eat Lucas, Luv.
Yes, he jumped in the pot but I do not know what happened to him after that.

tevagirl · Oct 17, 2006

Capture and release my foot. So they get back in, only now they have revenge on their minds? Nuh uh. :sad2:
