Something to think about....

Spiders: Unsuccessfully trapping hikers since, like, forever.

We’ve all walked through a spider web at some point. You escaped and are here now, so that backs up the statement. If you’re currently stuck on the web and reading this, hey, at least you’re still able to scroll on social.

If you get out of that predicament, avoid future sticky situations by using a stick while walking. Hold it in front of you as you roleplay as Gandalf walking in the woods, sorry, to clear any stray webs across the path. (You shall pass!!!!)

You can also take the day off from leading and let someone else take charge. We know, you’re an Aries, but you can do it. If they are fairly tall, bonus. You can also sleep in and let the early risers clear the trail for you. You can rescue them after you begin your hike at 10 a.m. Finally, if you avoid the trap, aren't you special? Make the most of the flailing dance routine that follows. More passion! More energy! Umm. Less passion! Less energy!

P.S. The average spider can spin or repair a web in about 30 to 60 minutes. Something to keep in mind if the trail is one-way. You will possibly meet the spider again. Awkward.
