Ever had something that just killed the 'mood'? I did last night....
So the wife and I were laying in bed..uh talking. She asked me to get up and light a candle so we could play amish or something (Mr. Yoder knows how to plow a field let me tell ya).

I turned the light on to see and there on the wall right next to her was a black widow (as noted in a previous OP, we have a lot of them outside). I grabbed the nearest thing to me (no, not a rake), a bottle of gold bond powder, and smashed it (and of course, it was open and powder was all over).

We are guessing that because I sprayed outside to kill spiders (and it lasts for 12 weeks) they decided to come on in. Bastards.

Last night's score - TSS 1, Black Widow 1......

Share any mood killers you have had :)

1. I'd've spent the rest of the night standing on the bed, every light on full, terrified,
constantly scanning the walls and floor and ceiling, too afraid to sleep.

:scared:

Crikey.

9. We were then worried about our daughter so I went in her room to scan it
I don't like using the spray in the house, so it is hunting time.

Last thing I want is to be having some, uh fun, and get a widow bite on my happy spot :)

2. Mom calling.
His mother must have ESP or something. I swear that woman knows and calls to interrupt almost every time.

to buy those new tampons I gave you the coupon for today? Call me back and let me know."

19. My god yes. Our son has some sort of 'dads gonna get lucky' telepathy.
It's amazing.
He wakes up about 90% of the time as soon as we get... you know.
Doesn't matter if we're two rooms away.

So frustrating!

12. Years ago, a GF's dog sneaked up and licked my butt.
I didn't want to have sex for, like, two years after that.

30. There are very few things that ruin the mood quicker than a cold wet dog nose
in a weird unexpected place at the wrong time.

My ex had several dogs... that happened to me more than once.

34. Was this a lame star trek reference?
If it was, I'm a horrible nerd for detecting it.
If it wasn't, I'm even an even worse nerd for thinking it.

33. I used to work for a Mennonite agency. I know lots of Yoders.
And I'll never be able to look any of 'em in the face without laughing ever again.

Thank you. Thank you very much :rofl:

36. This is a direct quote from my husband from 2 weeks ago:
"You sure are starting to look like your mother-in-law with that gray streak in your hair."

Mood DEAD. Immediately. Tears followed quickly.

A woman *never* wants to hear she looks like her husband's mother. Ever.

And if he says it when you're ..... talking .... it's even worse.

I really haven't forgiven him yet and am contemplating coloring my hair.

38. LOL! He does have a lot of gray in his hair but I am
going to think up something evil to say. Maybe something to do with his bald spot. He's very vain about that.
