If it’s late at night and you’re the only person awake in the house and something brownish and fist size slithers along the back-splash of your kitchen sink as you fill a glass with water– and if it cowers behind the gallon jug of distilled water meant to .moistens the oxygen being created in your home machine and if it shivers – and your vile vision can’t identify it– reaching out to move .the jug is courage, and smacking the thing with a long handle wooden spoon is judicious – . finding out that it’s an air conditioning vent blown plastic grocery bag (a rolled up .fugitive from the trash bin) is hysterically funny - and well worth the extra heart and blood pressure pill.–and definitely all the excitement needed for the weekend.

You are soooo funny.
That's great. You were more than brave and can tell that story on yourself for years to come.

I know my heart would have been racing at that moment but instead the outcome gave me a great laugh!

I believe my blood pressure rose as I read this, but it was indeed worth it when I read the end and had that chuckle!
