Meet John...John's a spider.

This is John. He's only about 10 mm long but he sits there on my work desk watching me work. I watch him get the "zoomies" but eventually he comes back and just watches me. He's a good guy.

He doesn't talk much but what he lacks in personality he makes up for in just being there when I need someone to vent too. John disappeared for a few minutes while I was working on some tough code. I grew a little concerned that he may have gone away for good. When I returned to my work I saw John on top of my laptop screen slowly walking back and forth. In a way he helped me solve the problem I was working on. The short respite gave my mind some time to reset and the solution came to me.

If you don't have a John or Frank in your life I recommend one.
