So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

There was a large black spider perched on a web that had been built between the toilet brush and the wall. The spider had been there, more or less, for six months. In a moment of clement feelings, I had spared its life, and then when it continued to live there, I felt that I could not revoke my clemency. I named the spider Pierre, despite the fact that it was probably a female. He had become my de facto pet, and I spoke French to him so that I could practice my accent out loud. I hadn�t spoken to him lately, though, as our conversations recently always seemed to end in arguments. I always asked him what he had accomplished while I was at work; he thought this question was a loaded question, and that I was judging him for staying home all day, I claimed that I was just curious what it was that he did all day, he claimed that he had been busy all day hunting, I asked what more there was to hunting than lying in wait on one�s web� you can see how this might go. We had implicit agreement that I would not kill him as long as he stayed generally in the area of his web and didn�t make any sudden movements.
I used to have another spider pet, in college. This spider also had a general web behind the toilet in the bathroom. Unlike Pierre, this spider was dead, and had been dead for as long as I had known of its presence behind the toilet. I didn�t clean up the spider�s body, though. Instead I would sit on the toilet and ponder the meaning of mortality. With Pierre around I spent less time pondering mortality and more time on guard against any sudden movements. Predictable as Pierre was, living spiders are always inherently more unpredictable than dead ones. I talked to Pierre about it once. He thought that it was a little morbid to keep a dead spider in a web behind your toilet. He asked me if I was asking him his opinion about this because I felt like this sort of thing lay in his future. Of course my answer was no, but I think that our relationship wasn�t really the same after that. Recommended by 1 Member 4 Comments. He's still alive? That's pretty cool. I think you should also extend a "and if you don't have babies" clause. » jinyu on 2013-03-16 03:53:11 OMG I HATE SPIDERS!!!!! However, this one doesn't sound too bad. Except for the fact that he gets defensive. That's never a good trait in spiders. O.O » Midnight on 2013-03-16 10:37:56 I was afraid to click on the link to your blog in the new entries list because of the title of this one. Since my own policy is to remove spiders by any means necessary as soon as possible I don't think I would have been so kind to such an intruder. » randomjunk on 2013-03-16 11:21:46 Mad respect dawg » middaymoon on 2013-03-16 09:45:57
