When do Spiders become pets?

This has nothing to do with running but I guess I could lose weight over the gross-ness of it

We were at my MIL house last night for dinner and she starts talking about finding a little spider and feeding it. I'm like "What?" We don't feed spiders.. we kill them. No not my MIL.. She is in desperate need of a dog. This is not normal. She was feeling sorry for that spider because he was so tiny. He had little to nothing to eat. She was going around the house in search of bugs for that little guy to eat. We have a feeling that one day we will find out that spider was so well fed it's now the size of a grapefruit. Now that's NOT good! A little background info... they also have had one of those sucker fish, that clean the algae off the fish tank for more then 20 years. It started out the size of a pinkie finger and now is the size of a large arm. The thing is huge... they keep feeding it.. So that's my concern with that spider.. 20 years from now that spider could be HUGE! They take a little too good of care of their pets.

It only gets better... the kids happened to check out Steve's parents calendar hanging on the wall... in one tiny corner a hand written note.. 1 roll of toilet paper. Steve's father is convinced his mother uses too much toilet paper. He has decided that this is something to track. He is actually tracking the number of rolls they go through. Steve was telling his father.. He really needs to find a hobby. Do you think? I  just find it more then funny.

(I need a pix of that fish)..

On a positive note.. he fixed their stationary bike.. time for them to get back working out!

Do you have a weird thing you made into a pet? We had a squirl and raccoons growing up.. We'd find them as abandoned babies and raise them until they were able to live in the wild. Oh almost forgot.. we had tadpoles, frogs, hermit crabs. I think that's about it. 


What things to you chart? TP? Only my workouts.. food and weight.
