One day when I was 7 I was at work with my dad and I was outside with a pencil poking a spider web with it and dad came out to say lets go home he was done. I got in the truck and had the end of the pencil in my mouth and remembered where I had it at first and told my dad and he told me that spider webs will put hair on my chest for days after that I was always checking cause I was a girl and did not want that, to this day I still check it at times...pretty silly uh!!! 45 now
