ATTACKED!!!

I was attacked in my own home!! Okay maybe I am being a little dramatic but wait for the story.

Here I am sitting on couch just finished with dinner and I decide I would like to paint my nails. Unassumingly I head upstairs when half way up what do see just as I turn the corner?? A HUGE SPIDER!! I am not exaggerating at all, see photo below. Having no bug spray in my house I get a bottle of 409 from the kitchen. Just as I begin to spray he runs away, UP the wall! So I go after him... once I am upstairs he changes direction and starts to head towards ME! I continue to spray with all my might. He starts to run downstairs and then stops, KNOWING I won't come anywhere near him and am therefor TRAPPED upstairs with a low running bottle of 409. I considered switching to hairspray but it is pump and probably wouldn't act fast enough. Luckily I find a pair of shoes I had taken up stairs. I throw them at him and I SWEAR he DUCKED so both shoes missed him. Looking around upstairs I decide the only thing I have left to throw at him are my bags of garbage. Only having two bags I have to quickly fill other bags to have enough weight to throw. Three bags later he is on the floor. I spray a huge pool of my remaining 409 and wait 5 minutes just to be sure. Thankfully I had finally won!

I am now okay but tomorrow I will be buying bug spray.
