This is an IM conversation I had with my co-worker about my morning that day......



11:13 AM Corinne Smith

This is a good story
Lets just say I got into a fight with a GIANT spider and I won
Killed it with a frying pan
CORINNE -1
SPIDER - 0

11:13 AM Co-worker

really ?
how big ?

11:14 AM Corinne Smith
silver dollar size. I swear
I mean silver

11:14 AM Co-Worker

k tell the story

11:14 AM Corinne Smith

alright
So I have like 10 minutes until I have to be to work so I grab my jacket from my bed and go to put it on and this HUGE spider crawls out of it and under my covers.
Naturally I am screaming
and thinking Oh crap. I cant just leave it there because there is no way in heck I am ever sleeping here again if I know there is a giant creature lose in my bed.
Im not a good sharer
okay pause the story

11:16 AM Co-Worker
k

11:31 AM Corinne Smith

So now I have like 5 minutes to get to work and so Im pretty sure I am going to be late because I still need to find this thing and muster up some sorta courage. No kidding... I would MUCH rather go through child birth then have to see and kill a spider.

Dont judge me.
So I call Danny because Blair isnt in yet and I was like alright you are going to think I am completely nuts
I know.... but, I just had a huge A spider crawl into my bed and I have to kill it now and so I am going to to be late.
He's like umm... okay i guess. I could tell by his voice he was not amused.

11:33 AM Co-Worker

yeah Danny doesn't get amused easily

11:33 AM Corinne Smith

So I hang up the phone and now I have to get ready for war.
I got a frying pan in one hand. Windex in the other and my mom on the phone for moral support. I look like an idiot and I was bawling my eyes out but I knew I had to do.
PAUSE

11:37 AM Co-Worker
are you serious ?

11:43 AM Corinne Smith

So i slowly start pulling off all the pillows and am on edge watching for any movement. And my mom is like counting down for me to pull the covers back real quick. haha
I finally did it and the sucker fell off the bed and I screamed soo loud im sure my neighbors think I am dead.
And I hit it with the frying pan and then stood on the frying pan for like 5 minutes while I recovered.
haha then I grabbed a cup and put some Cotton balls with nail polish remover on them and stuck it on the monster

11:44 AM Co-Worker

why ?
to sedate him ?

11:44 AM Corinne Smith

That was insurance just in case he decided to
be reincarnated while I was at work.
I have the biggest headache right now. Man it was intense. Oh and I made it to work only 15 minutes late. I was pretty impressed. I escaped death and was only 15 minutes
late!

11:45 AM Co-worker

thats not too bad
so you still have its dead body under a cup at home ?

11:46 AM Corinne Smith

yes
and I will vacuum it up when I get home
I have goosebumps telling you about it
