Karma

I believe in karma. It scares me because I belive what goes around comes around and it sucks knowing you’ll get your just desserts one day but you don’t know when. I’m pretty sure I have a lot of karmic debts that need to be collected, but I can thankfully cross this one off my list because it’s now out of the way. You might remember this post. Shameful, I know, but what’s done is done. Well, a few days ago I was taking some pictures of my spiders. While hooking up the camera to the computer and loading them my hard drive, I realized I left the lid off one of the spider’s jars. I looked inside and he was gone! I panicked and sat back down in my chair to think. The lid was off for maybe three minutes, tops, and he wasn’t on the desk where the jar was. I sat in fear, thinking he was crawling on my neck, up my leg, or even on my hair. The psycological impact was devastating and I was ready to curl up in a ball on my bed, but then I figured that he might have already made his way onto my bed, expecting for me to do exactly that. I am quite predictable, after all. I decided to look up a new place on the Internet, because I could obviously no longer stay in this apartment. I turned to face the computer, and behold! He was crawling on the wall behind it! After spending a good chunk of time trying to put him back in his jar, I finally succeeded. I am considering getting rid of the spiders, but I think they are too smart now. I think if I dumped them outside, they would just bide their time until they were big enough and then pounce on me when I least expected it.
