Wednesday, March 03, 2010EWWWWW & OWWWWWAs Hubs parked T2 up in the garage - after a smashing Sunday afternoon ride - something caught my attention on the ground. Now I know we've got a few black widow spiders squatting in the garage & they don't particularly bother me, so long as they stay where they are, but after Sunday, I'm beginning to wonder if I mustn't thin out their population.............  I saw a small lizard had become trapped in the spiders web & it was it's thrashing around which had caught my attention. Mama Spider must've been quite chuffed with herself to catch such a nice dinner!  As soon as the lizard realised it wasn't going to go anywhere in a hurry, Mama Spider moved in for a taste.  I crouched down to try & get some good shots, cos I mean this is Nature at work innit? (All the while wondering how the hell I'd get my bulk outa the garage in a hurry if that bloody spider so much as looked my way!)  Mama Spider started on the tail & I can tell you, by the following morning, there was bugger all evidence left of there ever being a small lizard in her web. I know lizards & ghecko's have the ability to 'ditch' their tails in times of danger or crisis, but I actually watched this spider cut her way through it. The poor likkle lizard's heart was beating profusely - I could see its torso pumping furiously - but it definitely fought a losing battle. All together now.......aaaaaaawwwwwwwww. Ag shame. So that's the ewwwww bit. Now here's the owwwww bit.  I had a 'basal cell carcinoma' growth cut out of my neck on Monday. The actual process was pretty painless, but bugger, it's uncomfortable having your neck sliced up! (I asked the doc if she'd like to do my double chin(s) as well, but she declined. Bugger!) It'll take about a week for the results to come through, but I reckon the doc got everything, so I'm not too worried. I'll just be glad when I can have a proper shower again & turn my head without yelling "Owwwww"!
