Today, I almost died! Literally!
I’m serious!
Heart attack inducing, accident causing, never to return again…all because of eight little legs dangling in my face!
But I was brave my friends and did the unthinkable! I squished the spider!
Honestly, he left me no option. I’m okay with spiders, as in, we can coexist with them staying far far away from me, as long as they promise to not move quickly or run at me. Then we’re good…or at least I will pretend we’re good. But dangling in my face while I drive 45 mph down a four lane road? No, sir! Not okay. Ever. And I do mean in my face, so much so we shared a breath together. At 32 weeks pregnant, I have enough trouble breathing. I really don’t need a spider stealing my breath away. If he were a hot, hunky fireman, steal away, but he wasn’t. He was a spider, which I am going to claim was much larger than he really was to save at least a little of my dignity here.
The good news is, I survived…and he did not! Also, I didn’t hit anyone, anything or cause any wrecks. Well, I don’t think I did anyway. I can’t really say, I was a little focused on not hyperventilating.
So tell me, what’s your biggest fear? Or crazy near death experience story?
