    It's technically an educated guess, but it's because the porch they were sleeping in was constructed with a wooden board on top of a brick wall, and every little tiny hollow/tunnel where the bricks came together and there was a little dip had a little black widow spider sitting cozy in it. Grandma had previously noticed there were spiders, but not what type, and she was like "well they'll eat bugs that might get in" and left them alone. They were rather less tolerant after the bite and subsequent investigation, alas.

    My sis-in-law has been very definitely bitten by a female redback spider which had made a home in a box in their garage in Perth - positive ID was made at the time of the bite, antivenin administered, she felt a bit nauseous for a couple of days but that was it. Don't reach into boxes without looking if you're in Australia, folks.

    Aw, poor spiders. :( Thanks for the story though!

    (...Man, when you think about...Homo sapiens sapiens are THE ultimate invasive species in the world, aren't we? We just kind of go tromping around, expending the biosphere to bend to our whims and throwing big destructive hissy fits when it doesn't. There ARE other species that radically restructure their local environments, blue-green algae and beavers come first to mind, but on a global scale it seems like we have them all beat. Well, maybe not the algae, but y'all know what I mean.)

    i have So Many tabs open on my phone because im trying to find a dress shirt to wear to my friends wedding this fall! Aaaaaaa!

    I could get custom shirts made at the same place thats making my suit (basically mens wearhouse) but that requires Commitment (tbh would probably be better for me but im still eyeing up Lands Ends dress shirts)

    I'm disproportionately annoyed by the upcoming Friendsim title not giving us any real clues as to who it's about.

    When a thread includes a person who blocked me for whatever reason so I can't tell later commenters how stupid their arguments are.

    sleep schedule is Bad, made Worse by bad blood sugar management

    my insulin pump and glucose monitor sensor team up to yell at me if my bg is too high, which it was for like 4 hours overnight despite multiple corrections. It did eventually get down to normal but ugggghhhh

    I totally misread the time on my ticket and thought it was an hour earlier than it actually was. Which means I walked in on a film that was in progress and am now waiting for that movie to finish so that I can go in the theatre after -_-
