Mightn't something hitherto unseen have eaten me right after?

The highlight of my day was when one of the giant spiders on my patio doors caught a bug and spent thirty minutes spinning it into a ball. If I stood at the door, I could watch the drama unfold only an inch from my eyes, but instead I chose mostly to watch from my desk chair. Not long after the spider finished its handiwork, it darted into the door

A+ post, this. I once watched a spider do that very thing with a wasp. Not only did it bundle its dinner very nicely, it somehow dismantled it and carried back to its cranny in butcherpaper-white parcels.

I'm glad you broke the inevitable chain of events building up on your balcony. But now I'm all curious about The Project. Although I have my suspicions.

I imagine your suspicions are correct, sir.

A Paper Fort!!!

Just kidding. Though maybe sincere in the metaphoric. A paper fort in another sense (or are you the type who prefers the electronic?)...why am I speaking in vagueries and code? Did you intend to be secretive and do you prefer that we stay secretive as well?

That's not an accusation nor frustration, just curiosity. I'm thrilled you're undertaking the project.
