Enter the cheat code...rocketman...pdnejoh...fuck it, Dan woke up. His mind was fuzzy and unclear, and he felt like a tool. Once you start dreaming about Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, you know you're a tool. No more playing before bedtime, he promised himself.
He pulled his watch from under his pillow—it was 10:10AM. He wasn't about to get up yet. He'd stay in bed until 11, when he would drag himself out and take a shower, probably get started on his English paper.
Dan looked upwards toward the ceiling, his eyes passing across the light fixture and air duct. He stretched out in his bed, scratching his testicles through his boxers—what—his pupils blearily refocused on the air duct.
A small yellow spider scuttled out, tiny legs pattering on the wall, a miniature web spun sometime in the night. Dan's heart froze; spiders weren't his friend. He'd have to get the vacuum to fuck off all of those little fuckers, those fucking...mind falling back into sleep...
...he couldn't sleep, still thinking of those spiders. He opened his eyes again, and the sun was streaming in through the windows, glinting off the several spiders now congregated up in the air duct. Jesus, couldn't those things die now? It's October, for Chrissakes. Dan looked in the corner, and groaned as he saw a web. More of them. He dealt with spider fortresses enough when at his girlfriend's house, he didn't need them here as well.
Something tickled his foot, and he jerked up in bed, eyes wide open. Where was his dog? Was it his dog? That dog was forever tickling his feet when he slept, his long frame extended the bed—Dan wanted to throw the blankets off and see what the problem was, but something said no.
Shit—there was another web on the bureau. How many webs did these spiders create? His heart was pulsating rapidly now, skipping every fourth beat. He had mitral prolapse and stenosis, just like his dad, and all these arachnid menaces were doing no help to it.
"Mom?" he called out. No, his mom would be at work today. "Dad? Can you come in for a second?" No answer. "Casey? Brandon?" he yelled, his dog and brother respectively.
No answer.
The tickling at his feet persisted, and he sensed a loss of feeling in his soles. Dan's eyes darted all around the room, noticing webs in all the corners, and on the floor, and in the ducts and light fixtures—he had to get out. Fight or flight—his sweat—cold sweat—appeared on his skin in floods.
Dan pulled back the covers, and shrieked, his voice reverberating around the empty house. Around his feet was a grey wiry blob of web, and hundreds of tiny yellow spiders weaving in and out. The arachnid fortress intertwined around his legs, and his hairy ankles and feet were covered in spiders. There was no feeling below his shins.
Ripped off the blankets—oh Jesus oh God motherfucker—and tore his legs out of the web. The web broke open and spiders flew everywhere, their tiny pinprick bodies and legs landing across his chest and groin, bursting out across his sheets. Sensing fear and turning collective rage—Christ no—crawled up his legs.
Dan screamed, and the spiders began to move in force up his leg, their tiny legs pattering through his hair, biting him as they went along, like a single organism. He backed up against his bedframe, but behind him a horrible rattling hiss alerted him to a spider nest built behind his head.
The spiders crawled inexorably fast up his boxers, attaching themselves to his scrotum and penis, biting him fiercely and covering his shaft in dozens of miniscule yellow bodies. They bit him, and he was flooded in pain, screaming, shrieking for anyone to help.
He flung himself out of bed, a panic attack striking his heart—he fell on his arm, and he heard a sickening crack. Landed upside-down—arm broken. The spiders spilled out off his boxers all onto his pale stomach, eating away at his penis. The spiders he had disturbed by his head began to stream down all across the covers, onto the floor, encircling his head in a many-legged halo of hatred.
Spiders began pouring out from every crevasse, and underneath the bed as well; his fall had awaken them, and larger spiders, yellow ones and brown ones and black ones, and bulbous ones with red spots hissed and crawled across his exposed genitals and stomach, eating away at him, picking their teeth into his body.
Dan couldn't even speak. The large spiders crawled onto his head, their long feelers reaching into his ear like a monkey reaching for a nut. The smaller ones felt up his face, entering his eye sockets, and squeezing in between his lids. Dan fainted from pain and shock, his mouth agape. Spiders poured into his warm, wet mouth, caressing his tongue, delivering swelling bites and falling down his open windpipe and esophagus.
His penis had been totally eaten away, a bloody scrap of skin. The spiders climbed into the gaping wound and ate away at the pale fleshy morass of skin, entering into his blood vessels. As he leaned back, vomiting, the spiders surged into his open mouth, choking him, eating away his stomach and intestines.
A final pulse heralded his death. The spiders feasted on his flesh, just like they had feasted hours before on his dad, brother, and dog.

You can be a creepy little bastard when you want to be.
Spiders. Why did it have to be spiders. Everyone fucking hates spiders.
I know, I know...that's the point. But let's be fair here: FUCK SPIDERS.

I don't think this is your best writing, but this entry did make me shudder. However, I'm pretty sure that spiders can't eat away someone's penis like that, especially not that fast. I hate spiders so much.

As I've made public, I don't like spiders in any way. Last week a friend of mine took me down to his basement to show me his massive tarantula he had just gotten, and only found an empty tank. Puzzled, he mused that the thing must have escaped somehow and was crawling about the basement floor. I threw myself back up the stairs and cuddled the cat for a while, before he told me there was no spider, just a joke.
Feckin' spiders.
