Now I know in one of my previous posts,I mentioned zebras in the title.Well that was a line from something that I wrote not so long ago,which i may post at some stage - not sure yet.
But this one IS about a spider called Eric and his alcohol problem.
You see,the company where i work is actually 2 semi detached houses that have been renovated and made into one house.
Wooden floors,old style architecture - corrugated sheeting on the roof,the whol bit.
So now the toilet in the gents also has a separate urinal -so 2 people can use the loo at the same time if need be.
Well,I went in there yesterday,and decided to use the urinal - so there i was busy doing my business,and out from behind the flush spout crawls a spider.
Not too big,but not too small either.I think it was a button spider.They are quite common here.
So anyway.I cant get finished quick enough - I mean would you want to have your business exposed to the world being less than 6 inches away from a potentially poisonous spider - I dont think so.Then Eric - nice name for a spider - started to walk sideways.Now i know that they have 8 legs and all the rest - but I swear that he was walking sideways and being careful enough to walk around the outside of the bowl.
Does he have an alcohol problem? is that why he was walking sideways ?
I didnt stick around long enough to find out
