So I heard this awful awful thing the other day, a supposed statistic that said the average person eats 50 spiders in their life or something. I asked the person who told me it "what? why?" (and this is the part that creeped me out) and they told me it was because they crawl in your mouth while you're sleeping, apparently it's warm and moist. This bothered me so so much, I went into minor hysterics just imagining it. So anyway, my point is that I really have to look into this and find out if it's based on anything at all or just an old wives tale (I'm like 95% sure the latter), but in the meantime I have had to convince myself that spiders are not going to climb in my mouth while I sleep. So far all I have come up with is "why would they go for my hot, moist mouth when the rest of my body is so damn hot and moist?", but then I remembered my lips, which everyone calls "spider lips", so I guess they'd go for them, and then just fall into my mouth anyway. Man, it's tough having spider-lips! But I guess on the whole they're not as much of a problem as my spider legs.
Speaking of spider-legs... okay I have no good segueway here. More later!
