I was in bed and saw four teranchulas (the spider, I don't wont to look up their spelling) the size of grapefruits sitting in 4 huge webs down the vertical blind closest to my bed. I walked to the livingroom to see if someone had relocated the 4 stuffed tarenchulas I kept on a verticle blind in there.

I looked for something to throw at the spiders to see if they moved (and thus verify that they were real). I had nothing I could live without, so I started rummaging through my change glass for a penny. Suddenly two of them jumped across the room at me. I awoke as they landed on me....

as an expert dreamer of bugs and arachnids of all sorts i ask YOU to ask YOURSELF what's bugging you. no really.

I was talking with a top scientist about the benefits of eating cobra meat (all of their toxins clean out our system) when she suddenly flipped down her diamond-cutter eye glasses. She said when you are in FL (as we were), you ran into a terranchula every 10 miles you walk. She started looking around the ground because she could tell one was near...

"teranchulas." *laughter*
"bob's, i mean steve's, thing? quite a dream, huh?"
"no, just the spelling - ter-an-chula - he's Mr. Phonetic,"
"no, he's Mr. I Can't Spell."
Egads. My skin just crawled.
