Can you see this line?

Melvin, our spider, up and left the other morning. Only one day after we named him. I guess that’s what we get for making a spider our pet. But he packed up his entire web. I didn’t know they could do that! How do they do that?! Suck all that thread back into their bodies?
I’ve been “Kabooming” the fruit flies. They are breeding on our sponges.

I went to the eye doctor this morning. I always feel like I’m failing a test. Am I supposed to read the whole line? What if I can only see 3 letters? I said G, but it’s really a C, the woman testing said Great. And smelled like patchouli. I like the crazy eye goggles with the flippy lenses. 2 or 3? 4 or 5? 5, 2, 7 I CAN SEE!
On my drive there, I looked in the rearview mirror. Behind me in the passenger seat, a man was asleep, head back, mouth agape. The woman driving looked blank. It was 7:48 in the morning. Buddy, it’s early, I thought, you’re going to have a long day.
