A spider got into our condo yesterday, either from the balcony or from a neighbouring suite:
Narlythotep: Wow! What is that thing! That's the coolest thing I've ever seen!
Spider: ....
Andrew (tries to catch spider to release outdoors by blowing it into a container with the can of compressed air he uses for dusting).
Spider: (is frozen by blast of cold air).
Later:
Spider (having thawed out, reappears on wall above bookshelf): I'm not going anywhere near that psycho with the can of air. Remains very still all evening.
Still Later: (We unfold the sofa bed).
Spider: (travels across ceiling to point just above kitchen counter).
Nyarlythotep: (jumps on counter) OMGSPIDER IT'S BACK! I WANT!
Spider: (is lowering itself on silk thread).
Andrew: That spider is living dangerously.
Spider: Yikes! (crawls hastily back up thread to ceiling).
Nyalythotep: IT'S LIKE A YOYO BUT WITH LEGS OMG COOLEST THING EVAH!
(Andrew prods spider with yardstick, transfers it to frying pan held by me. I cover pan with lid. Andrew takes spider down to lobby and releases it outside.)
Concierge: You know what REALLY drives cats crazy? Film projectors. Yep. Especially Siamese.
Nyarlythotep: (next twenty minutes) WHERE'D IT GO WHERE'S THE SPIDER I CAN HAS SPIDERZ NOW?!
