My bathroom is an outhouse, which really isn't bad at all (especially compared to pretty much every other outhouse i've seen in Kenya). The glaring exception to the "not bad at all" comment is the arachnid population. Now I understand that by definition an outhouse is outdoors, and spiders live outdoors, so I shouldn't really complain about it. I really only worry about killing spiders that I find in my house, and i've actually had a part time roommate in a small frog that helps me out with insects and whatnot(I was put on the spot to name him and for some reason Lancelot popped into my head). My issue isn't so much the fact that there are spiders, but more that I'm pretty sure some of them are big enough for me to put a leash on and walk around town with. I've attached a few pictures of one from the outhouse (I think I saw it wink at me) and then one that was just hanging out creepily right in front of my door. It wouldn't move or anything. It was just sitting there on my door step staring at me. I think it was waiting for me to go to sleep or something. It was very eerie.
