Adoption Certificate for Nellie, the Daily Thread numbat (with thanks to @Catfish)
Went to the cafe just now near my bus stop, and I though I had a stray hair that wouldn't leave my face alone. Turns out it was a baby wolf spider(? Maybe a troll spider thing?) that I brushed off onto my cardigan. I freaked out, brushed it off, and stomped it. I feel a bit bad, but also don't pretend to be my hair and touch my face bruh.
The cafe staff and myself are very much awake now loool
The neighbourhood would have been awake with my level of screaming. Oh my god.
He was hitching a ride to work.
Someone downvoted you? No one wants a spider in their hair! Anyway, spider will likely now be food for ants or maybe a bird will get lucky with a tasty squished spider for breakfast. Don’t feel bad, circle of life continues.
