Spiders

as i was leaving my room to come to use the computer to indeed blog i opened the door and in walks a spider the size of my hand. it's still in my quarters. i've seen spiders that big in australia and they were always kindly removed and returned to the outdoors. i don't know if i can do that on my own. is this worse than a mouse? they are just as scary. perhaps not as dirty. at all. i just wonder where it will be when i go back. yuck yuck yuck.

aside from that above mentioned meteriorite the residency is off to a swimming start i must say.

i've met most of the artist residents and a few of the other residents who live on the property. did i tell you it's breathtakingly gorgeous. the taxi driver who gave me a ride from the bus station to here and i were both like wow wow wow, and my jaw literally dropped. it wasn't unlike going to a golf course wedding which is usually pretty, but make it set in costa rica tropical and so not a golf course. why am i even comparing it to that? anyway, so glad it is a nicely cared for beaut

... argh! i had to stop mid sentence because francisco and the ladies had returned from their shopping trip and i had to go ask him what to do about the spider.

ok it's a terantula and i'm going to get him to help me get it out. bye
