My mistake

Last night the loving wife started shrieking so I figured snake or spider. Kinda late in the year for snakes so I went into the bedroom to look for spiders. It was gone so when I went back out the Mrs asked was it a "fiddle back" (common name local name for the venimous brown recluse because of the fiddle shape on it's back)

How I wish I could close my mouth and think before the little monster in me cuts loose.

I said it was not a fiddle back, it had a violin on its back so I let it go.

Now I cant get back in the house and it is cold out here. It's not like she is using the bedroom cause she is in a hotel till the exterminators get here.
