Toad, Spider, Whatever

Our son was wiping off the kitchen table this evening when he let out a scream.  On the table was a spider that was the size of a small toad.  Seriously.  It was the grossest thing I have ever seen on my kitchen table (and I have made Tabasco Soup!).  I beat it into submission with a broom and threw it’s disgusting remains into the trash.  Ew.  No really.  Ew, ew, ew.

We had just brought in the newspaper, and we think it came off of that.  Ew.

  2. It’s good that it did not appear when you were eating.

  5. I had a huge spider and a cloud of baby spiders on a bunch of bananas once.  I had bought them the day before and had not noticed a spider. The next morning the bunch was crawling with little ones and had a huge mama to boot.  The bananas were from South America so no telling what kinda spiders they werer. 
    But now I check the bananas closely.
    Did you buy bananas recently?

  6. If you’re in the U.S., it was probably harmless.  Biggest scare in a while I got was when I was sitting on the john at night, reading a suspense novel.  I was jolted out of my reverie by a large black spider walking across my bare foot.

  7. I freakin’ hate spiders!  Once I found one in a carton of grapes I bought.  It was terrible.
