For someone who hates anything to do with spiders,Oh my...I agree you notice every little detail to catch the rat.
"If I could give this book more than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat. Hilarious and even touching at times. Creative, imaginative . . . a true gem."
A free excerpt:
All that aside, at what must have been long past midnight, we (Roger and me) were awakened by a screaming Amy Preachy (Amy still being a resident during Robin’s brief stay). Within seconds, all of us, including Ozzie and Harriet, were at the scene of the crime. It seems that someone had planted killer scorpions, three to be exact, (we later learned them not to be poisonous but only looking that way) under Amy’s bedspread. The shock silenced poor Amy for the entire next day, an unexpected delight for which we would later thank the perpetrator.
Well the dust hadn’t even settled yet when Phillip Duclose came storming down the staircase crying hysterically. Harriet had all she could do to constrain poor Phillip from leaking all over her living room floor. It wasn’t till nearly an hour later that the cause of this second disturbance was revealed. Once again, Spiderman, (as so branded by Big Head MacFeefee) was the culprit. Rumor has it that as Phillip was reaching down into his diaper bag, (Phillip still being pampered at the time) he pulled out a spider that sat down beside him and frightened poor Phillip away.
Well the entire halfway house was all the way upset over this sudden emergence of creepy crawlers. Jessica Burd sat perched on top of Ozzie’s roll top desk refusing to come down. Amy Preachy’s arms were in full spin to the beat of her Biblical chants. And, of course, Roger’s duster was attacking anything and everything that moved. It was right out of a scene from One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, only there was more than one.
Harriet was the first, along with Miss Eileen, to try and bring some semblance of law and order amiss this chaos. They gathered all of us up and herded us into the kitchen. One by one we sat, after carefully scoping out our seat, at the kitchen table. Harriet was determined to get at the bottom of this caper. Unfortunately for Harriet, before uncovering our culprit, she uncovered the sugar bowl, releasing two more unwelcome guests upon the scene. Within seconds (milliseconds according to MacFeefee) this somewhat subdued group of mixed nuts once again exploded into every direction imaginable. Burd woman flew up. Big Head dropped down. Roger dusted left while Billy veered right. Ozzie fell over Harriet. Amy preached in place arms a flailing. Me, I backed quickly into the nearest corner and observed. It wasn’t long before I noticed that one of us scared rabbits was still sitting at the table as calm as a carrot. I made mental note of it. It would be Robin’s downfall.
