[Dailydrool] Fwd: Still kickin'......

[Vikki Vivilakis]

It seems there has been so much sadness on the Drool lately - that the
recipient of this email suggested I send it in, as it made her laugh.

Let's see - to make it at all basset related - the dogs slept threw it all.
I tried to clear up any "salty" language - let's hope it sends in the G
rated version, not the first version. Vikki






Today was so nuts ~ I just figured I would share it with the person that
enjoys my life soooo much more that I do!? Ahahahaha....

Last night while locking down the house - I locked the sliding glass door,
and noticed something I could not identify under the lock, where the door
closed in the slide.
 I put my glasses on - still couldn't identify said object!?! It was at that
moment something just said "don't look any more - go to bed"..
So I leave a note for Jack (dadperson)  "something in the sliding glass
door - please have a look" and put it where I knew he would find it, taped
to his coffee can.
I get up the next morning - getting ready to make my tea, and casually
inquire as to what the mystery object was. He gets a sheepish look on his
face and informs me it is - (are you sitting down?) - HALF of a tarantula!?
Half? Tarantula? But just half? I guess one of us was either going in ~ or
going out the door - and old Mr. Horney thought there was a woman
tarantula in the house and thought he'd make a break for it - and we cut him
right in half!?!

>From there I get informed "and the glue trap behind the refrigerator caught
another snake" - "WHAT!?!?"(this has happened before)...." I thought you
found all the snake entrances????" "YOU SAID YOU FOUND ALL THE ENTRANCES"!?!
Evidently not....

After that he goes under the sink to check the glue trap (which is supposed
to catch any wayward rodents - multi purpose objects glue traps) - when he
announces "I found a big crack under the sink where I think they are coming
in". Oh good... "It looks like someone tried to caulk it before, but it's
all come loose" - and of course he can't find any caulking compound. No
problem - I'll buy more. Then he gets a wad of paper towels and heads down
under the sink again.
Of course smart mouth me informs him that a snake can get by a wad of paper
towels - just wait till I go get some caulk compound - blah blah blah - when
he comes back out with a dead snake - that was half on and half off the glue
trap - he fails to mention he is coming out with a dead snake (about a foot
and a half long) and I almost pee myself.
Forget tea - I need Ouzo. I look at the glue trap, and see what looks like a
two inch worm, but on closer inspection..... can you guess what it was?????
Snake you guess??? You are correct Sir!!!!! Forget the Ouzo - I need Jack
Daniels....

So today's carnage tally - one big hairy spider ~ and three snakes of
varying sizes.

Jack LOVES living here - I told him you owe me big time for being here.....
He just can't understand what all the excitement is about!?!
