My knight in shining armor....

You ALL know my fear of spiders is both legendary and disturbingly life-altering.

Therefore, Glynn is the designated spider-killer and life-saver in our house.

Tonight, as I cuddled on the couch with the babies, watching "princess movie", I saw movement out of the corner of my eye.


Spider. Crawling up my wall. To the top. Which is about 16 feet tall.


Cue Jodie, screeching at Glynn. "Kill it! Kill it! Kill the Goddamn thing!"

Glynn: "And how exactly am I supposed to kill it, Jodie?"

Me: "Shoot it! Shoot it with the f-ing pellet gun!"


Now. We all know Glynn is an excellent marksman. But to ask ANYONE to shoot a spider with a freaking 3-millimeter plastic pellet and KILL the damn thing is a little much.


He. Did.It. He KILLED the GODDAMN SPIDER with a PLASTIC PELLET GUN.


He's my hero.








And this is how we spend Friday nights in the Spencer household.
