Adam! Have you not read Charlotte’s Web? This is what happens to Charlotte’s babies! They balloon away and poor Wilbur is devastated until three of the little ones reveal their presence - and choose to stay with him in his sty.

I read it when I was a kiddo, but I don't remember this, clearly. So everyone knows what ballooning is then? Facepalm =)

The movie is also quite precious if you want a quick refresh, really a powerful beautiful story and then you can *see* the little cartoon baby spiders balloon!

I think you need to come up with charts for Charlotte and Wilbur as a form of penance. 😉

Hiking is such a great idea for burning off this Marsy Pluto energy. Thanks Adam x

When Pluto crossed my Capricorn mars I got really fit and outdoorsy. I loved it.

What a great take on the square! And awesome image. I was working a wedding this past weekend and an adorable jumping spider ballooned onto a man's cheek. He was deeply insulted, which I found hilarious, until he squashed it with great fanfare and crushing vengeance. So intense. He was feeling the square a lil' early I suppose...

haha no way!? Did it balloon there or just jump? I'm floored that I wasn't aware of this spider tech.

It seemed like a ballooning because it came from high up and the man said it flew at him lol but I’m not sure. After reading your article though I felt pretty certain it ballooned :)
