Not only are these lyrics from No Doubt's incredibly epic album Tragic Kingdom, it's what happens every time I step out into my yard. I have an army of spiders that live around my house who make webs in virtually every nook and cranny they could possibly find. It's a little icky to be honest. I know spiders eat mosquitoes and other pesky insects but I find the urge to wipe them out whenever I see them, but just when I think I've cleaned them all out, a whole other spider condominium complex gets built up in its place. I suppose that's the trade off for having tall, green, leafy trees around. Is there any way to get rid of webs and have them not return? How do I make my yard an undesirable neighborhood for prospective spider homeowners?

And in a trip down memory lane, I am very happy to discover that Netflix has Dawson's Creek now available on streaming. It's totally different watching this show as an adult. Who knew that Dawson's dad was such a fox? I totally don't remember thinking that when I was in the eighth grade when the show came out. I love the smattering of old songs from my high school days that play throughout the show - Savage Garden? Hello, 1998. The only HORRIBLE and I mean horrible thing is that there must have been some sort of licensing problem with the theme song, and the show does not open with Paula Cole's "I Don't Want to Wait". I mean, come on! Still enjoying myself though, despite the fact that I have a sudden urge to smile with only half my mouth and use big words.
