Eee.

There is a big giant spider on the wall right next to my desk.

I can't stop looking at it. It's very distracting. (At least I haven't run out of the room shrieking.) I kind of want it gone, but I can't bring myself to kill it and would feel like a true idiot asking the student to do it. We can't really liberate it either -- I'm on the second floor and the windows don't open.

*shiver*

Would it be at all possible to trap it in a jar or box using a piece of paper and take ot downstairs and release it outside?

*shudder* I hate spiders. I don't care if I'd look stupid, I'd make somebody else deal with it before I'd go anywhere near it...

I cannot deal with bugs. Cockroaches, ants, just--bugs. Spiders are not bugs. Spiders kill bugs. So I like spiders.

I understand how that would work as an intellectual excuse. What I don't understand is how that can feel right to me on a gut-level. But it does.

Dunno. Maybe Peter Parker humanized them for me or something.

Spiders, big ones at least, are not one of my favourite things either.
