Scary-Ass Shit

this thing watched me sleep, all night

I woke up this morning to find something on the sliding door. Upon closer inspection, I discovered that the thing was THREE-AND-A-HALF INCHES IN DIAMETER and had EIGHT EYES, TWO HUGE FANGS/INCISORS, and SPIKES ON ITS LEGS; clearly, it was one of the scariest fucking things I had ever seen.

Naturally, I caught the thing and hid it in the closet so that the cleaning lady wouldn’t prematurely dispose of it or die of a heart attack or something.

I related the story to the others while on the dive boat, and Natalie (a visiting dive instructor from Montreal) informed me that she had captured a scorpion in her room just the other day. I quickly hatched a plan to make them fight, but… well, it didn’t happen. I can assure you that there would have been a scary-ass critter duel to the death if Kenny had more vacation time and had been with me on the trip. Damn him! Instead, I just took some photos before tossing it into a bush.

    Hmmm, I bet with a light tempura-style batter it would fry up nicely. Dipped in a light lime/soy/ginger sauce…yum!

    I forget that that picture might still be on the front page of your journal sometimes. So, I forget hold my hand in front of the screen while loading your page. (Pathetic huh?) Scares me half to death. Write something lengthy so it no longer graces the front page. Haha.

    You know, the only reason this is the most popular post in ALL of my journal entries is because it has the words “ass” and “shit” in it. Oh, and there’s an f-bomb in there as well.

    You guys are sick! :)

  • pablito

    Spent two weeks at a meditation retreat some years back. One night there was an enormous scary spider sitting in the ceiling over my straw sleeping mat. Normally I woulda run outta there screaming, but with the meditation thing going full on, in my zen state, it was all good and beautiful, like me and the spider were best friends, him helping me out by catching the huge insects and lizards running about the li´l bamboo hut I was staying in. Took plenty pictures of it, said good night to it, went to sleep. :)
