I wondered how Alfred ate in the womb?????

I'm pretty sure I was bitten by a spider in my sleep.

Good questions there steele mama. And I too have been a victim of spider bite in my sleep. Fortunately, not a poisonous species though!

Slip and fall in the bathroom. I was once injured by a soap dish - 5 stiches and blood gushing everywhere.

I may have a spider problem in my apartment.

Here is the trail of events:

Found one behind the cushion in a chair yesterday
Found one in my shower yesterday
And one under a t-shirt on the floor in my bathroom

I'm leaving for a week...but the exterminator HAS to come while I'm gone.
