the spider

ever had a spider crawl all over your head?

i did.

i was sitting in mums room this arvo, dutifully folding the clothes that i took in from the clothesline earlier, (and i remember i clearly shook each item before taking them inside), when i felt a weird sensation on my scalp

it kind of felt like water was trickling from my head

i had just washed my hair so i thought nothing of it...

until it felt like it was actual droplets, thinkin that i was breaking out a sweat from my obviously tiresome chores... i moved my hand to wipe it away

and then this big fat ugly spider with a huge butt started crawling down my arm, i quickly shook it off with such power that it landed on my jeans in a ball.

then my left elbow and wrist started aching so i thought i had been bitten, i firmly held my elbow with my right hand so as not to die and ran to tell mum.

she told me to put some mentholatum shit on it for some reason

so its better now, cant find fang marks... think im okay, havent keeled over or convulsed yet and its been a few hours.
