Mayhem in the Morning

     This morning, quite early, I was vacuuming the floor, trying to prevent the baby, now in the crawling stage, from being covered in cat hair.  I saw a small spider on the kitchen floor.  I aimed the vacuum at it; it scurried away.  Or attempted to do so. I pursued it as it scurried, caught up with it, and ran the vacuum right over it.  I hope it's dead.  I hope criminal charges are not forthcoming.
