Tonight, at dinner, we began discussing tarantulas. My older daughter had one try to walk into her house through the front door a few days ago.

That’s when it happened: my 6th grade daughter lets fly with this interesting factiod:

“If you touch a tarantula and then rub your eyes, you will have to wear glasses”.

Although my drink didn’t come out my nose, I did make an appropriate choking sound. She tells me she heard it on TV.

TV. Aaah.
