we have a lot of wolf spiders around here and in the fall they all think they should move into the house. usually i scoop them up and toss them back outside but was in a hurry the other day, couldn't find a 'scooper' so reached out and smacked it with my shoe. at least 100 baby spiders took...

@so lucky i thought a tomcat had gotten in. to make matters worse i took them to work, just to get them out of my house, and the girls there couldn't stand them either. after being moved from place to place they ended up out by the receptionist who couldn't smell them at all.

oh my word, i just found rudys thread and have sat here and laughed and cried as i went from page to page. on one level you have to feel sorry for rudy because he is the misfit but on the other level he is one lucky bird because he has such a loving mom. i guess you could dress him in a bunny...
