Similar to one of Dragontamers (just happened to me):

Hehehehe this is fun.
Here are some of my humble donation to this.
You know that you are addicted to Tolkien if/when:
You proudly tell every one you meet that you are a abnormaly tall hobbit. (I am guilty to this)
you call your friends blasphemers when they still ask who Elrond is after you forced them to see the movies 10 times and quoted most of of the parts in the books where he is mentioned.
you renamed your male bestfriend to Merry to go with your own inner version of Pippin. (don't tell my best bud, he still desn't know I call him that in my mind)
you changes words in songs, like Gandalf in the skye with diamonds.
you still belives that Rivendell just had a dress like a femal day when Arwen got to do Glorfys scene in the first movie. |

You live in the land of the Huntsman spider. I say your scorn is justified. The Wolf spider who introduced herself to me yesterday was only about the size of a quarter, but still not something I want running across my bare foot!

... you walk around the Precious Moments display in a Hallmark store muttering, "We hates them, yess, precioussss."
... you speak better Sindarin than Spanish, even though you suffered through eight years of formal Spanish classes.
... you refer to your children as "the hobbit lasses."
... you've scandalised your religious community by declaring the Ainulindale the best creation myth evah.
And Neume, you gotta give up the goods before you can shower: Sindarin for "panties"?
I like spiders. They eat mosquitos. |

LOL Try this one for size. This fist-sized baby, over a period of a few days, would redo her web right across our BBQ/entertainment area just outside our back patio door every evening. When we finally decided to go all Kodak on it, it was hanging about a foot away from where you step out. Grrr. Not something you want to walk into and find all knotted in your hair, I tell you.
So, yeah, we lives in the land of Shelobs!

I never LIKED spiders but lately a friend of mine who lives in Kansas has made me terrified of them. In a two week period she was bitten by TEN - yes thats right TEN - brown recluse spiders. She's been in the hospital twice despite the fact she has the emergency first aid kit for the bites. That apparently helps the bite itself so it doesn't rot (look up brown recluse spider bites online at the gory pics of bite victims) but the venom takes a few days of severe flu like symptoms to get out of your system. Imagine that times ten. Her body cannot handle the amount of venom in her body and so she's ended up in the ER for problems breathing or blacking out. Her rental house is apparently infested with them and when they sprayed for them they started to fight back I guess. And when she was looking for another rental house she was bitten 3 of the 10 times. Apparently the brown recluse can sense the venom in her system and looks at her as wounded prey. *shudders* She's doing a bit better but she has run out of the real pain meds and discovered that one of her bites was actually two bites beside each other and one didn't get treated with the first aid kit. So now she's got to deal with the rotting flesh on the back of her knee which she says is quite painful. Poor thing I had no idea that those little spiders were so damn dangerous.
Me - being the brave person that I am - saw a grass spider on my pillow, screamed like a little girl, and jumped off the bed to run in the hall, then made my mom come kill it. My son has had to check under my bed for spiders more than once since then.
Oh sorry....
Let me add something to the actual topic since I haven't in a long time:

To quote Oscar Wilde (with a small edit) "To be bitten by one spider is a misfortune, to be bitten by ten is sure stupidity and carelessness taken to an entirely new level". There's got to be an interesting story behind this - so go spill the beans. She tried beeding them? Or breeding with them? Or cooking with them? Was trying to steal their poison?

LOL As far as I know there is no real exciting story of what she's doing to provoke them. Apparently her town has a brown recluse problem (Kansas now has two bad reps to live down ) though they do seem to be 'picking on her'. Even her mother who lives in the same house only got bit 2 times in the same period.
She has stopped telling people when she gets a new bite because she's decided that people probably are starting to think she's either insane or making it up. Although one really religious friend of hers told her that it was the devil testing her. So her reply was - 'so if I die, did I pass or fail?'  _________________ Nagzul #2 - The Nazgul of Shmoove
