Spiders among other things

[anarianothren]

Allow me to state that should I be accosted by highway men on my pretty way to town, I shall not blink an eye. Should I find myself in a dark alley about to be deprived of my maidenly virtue, I would only sneer. There is one thing on this earth, however, that will always create in me, a reaction of terror and disgust

You should read Neil Gaiman's Anansi Boys :)

Strangely enough, anansi is the word for spider over there and with which they made fun of me for running from the room with the word "spider" as an excuse.
I'll look it up, though. :)

In it, Anansi is the spider trickster god. Then again, I make use of every opportunity to reccomend Neil Gaiman's writings...
