i've always kinda identified with spiders o.o and have grown up with an equally irrational feeling towards them. i can't believe that they'd ever do anything to hurt me even though they're totally capable of it. actually i feel that way about most everything, except yellow jackets. i know for a fact that they're all a bunch of hateful jerks.
oh :o there were centipede-like creatures that looked jus like that thinger that wandered about this apartment when i first moved here. after a couple months they mysteriously vanished though. o.o
