spider watch 2009: conclusion

spider watch 2009 has officially come to a close. i moved out of the apartment last friday. right now i'm staying with pete & mary and living out of my car until i can move into the awesome house my bro just bought in wash park. i much prefer the spider-free futon and homelessness to the 8-legged infestation.

in total, i found well over 200 spiders over 3.5 weeks. that averages to over 8 spiders a day with a low of 4 and a high 29. ew.

special thanks to mary, paul, and levy for helping me move and refraining from running scared after finding a ridiculous number of arachnids while moving things. picked up the couch to find 3, moved the bed to find a few more, lifted the nightstand to find another - they were everywhere. my friends, you have stomachs of steel and no fear.
