Happy Sunday everybody. I hope your weekend has went well. Just the other day at work, I went to walk someone into the bay at the fire station. Sounds completely boring and uneventful …. right? Wrong. As I walked in front of the station, taking the short cut in between the bushes and the flag pole, you guessed it. I walked straight through a“BIG-A” spider web. Now I’m not talking about one of those little teeny-tiny sissy string webs. I’m talking about one of those “I just knocked over a quickie mart, car jacked a city bus, and slapped that old winch aunt May in the mouth and spider man’s pissed” kinda webs. Notwithstanding the fact that I am DEATHLY AFRAID OF SPIDERS, I tried to continue walking and act like nothing had happened…..but then it hit me. You know what I’m talking about, that, “holy crap that little 8-legged ninja of nasty is somewhere on me” feeling set in. So I spin around doing the “vertical seizure, somebody please get it off me” dance. Kinda emasculating.
All this got me to thinking. Now, I’m not one to question God, and I know he has a master plan and design for all things, but I think I found a flaw. Spiderwebs should be a bright color. A bright color like hot pink maybe. Then, when you walk around a corner, you can see it. You can duck or walk around it. Trap, embarrassment, and I think I just pee’d a couple drops, avoided. I can hear you saying, “but all the insects could avoid it too and the spiders would starve”. I thought of that too. God could make all insects colorblind. They aren’t the smartest creations anyways. Let’s face it, they are almost at the bottom of the food chain, and as far as brains go, they land somewhere between roast beef and Paris Hilton. Taking the ability to see color, assuming they can already, would not be that devastating to them. Hot pink spiderwebs would make it so everybody could see them except the insects they were designed to trap. Problem solved. I’m just sayin‘.

Usually on Sunday I step out and use my I’m Just Sayin’ to sound off on someone or something that has caught my eye. Well, this week I’m going to sound off on ….. myself. Yesterday was my 100th post. The only problem with that is I started my blog on August the 10th of this year. That means that I have been posting entirely too much. I do not want to get myself burnt out. I really enjoy blogging, but like anything else in life, moderation is the key. So beginning this week I am going to slow down a bit. My goal is to post about 3 times a week. I do not want to sacrifice quality for quantity. I’m still in the process of deciding which daily themes I want to continue. Some of them are really fun to do. If you have a favorite theme or a suggestion, let me know. And again I just want to say thank you for taking time to read my nonsense. If you like it, please tell a friend, if you don’t like it, tell me. I hope everyone has a great week.
