Killing Spiders


I fell asleep on the floor watching TV last night. I was really tired but for some reason I woke up and went to my room to play a computer game before bed. While playing, out of the corner of my eye, i saw something moving on the wall behind my monitor. I looked up and saw a medium sized spider making a dash for the floor down my wall. I gasped but knew I had to act quickly -- so I grabbed a nearby shoe and smashed the hell out of the spider. He was big enough that he left a nice smear of goo on my wall. It was me or him. I have no regret.

(I'm not sure it was a brown recluse spider like the one above, but i'd never seen one like it before and it's shape stood out in my mind -- so it could have been the dangerous one shown above)

In other unrelated news, I might be volunteering at an after-school organization called the Bresee Foundation. Adrian, who heads the ServeLA ministry, notified me that I could be of use in training kids how to make videos.
Here is a video link where Bresee is featured on CBS News.

Oh, and tonight is the season finale of Lost -- I can't waiiit. Maybe more on that later.

Cheers!
