A screw in the ceiling

I am one of those people who does a corner check first thing in the morning. What does a corner check do you might wonder? It reveals those creepy crawlers that most women are afraid of....Spiders. There is this screw in the ceiling of my hallway and almost everytime I walk past it I look at it with fear thinking that it is a spider, obviously forgetting that the last time I saw it, it was a screw, however it still scares me. This morning I woke up and them when in for my shower, came back into my room and turned on the light. I saw a dark spot on my bed and thought "hmmm, wonder what that is?" "Could it be what I think it is?" "Is it a fluffy or a spider?" So I stepped close to see what it was. About 6 inches from my pillow sat a spider!!! It freaked me out, but I think that I am getting braver in my "old age" I walked over to it and smacked it with a book, then got tp and cleaned it up. Normally it would take me forever to commit murder to a spider, but lately I just grab something near by and do it. A few weeks ago I was clearing of my bed from books and such to go to bed. On my binder sat a spider and I didn't notice it until my hand was almost on it lol. So I grabbed a shoe and killed it instantly. Then just last week I was in the washroom and opened the door to come out and there was a spider hanging there at my face level, so I waited for it to go back up to the ceiling so I could go grab a shoe to kill it. I did it, I cannot believe that I am becoming more brave. This should help when going to Czech with creepy spiders, well at least I hope so.
