Hitchhiking Insects
The day before yesterday on my way to work I spotted out of the right corner of my right eye a katydid attached to the right-rear window of my car. Those things can really hang on because this one was there for the whole 38 mile trip. At the end of the ride I managed to get it aboard a stick and then to some bushes, but it was really hanging on to the glass. Then yesterday a spider was meticulously securing an egg-case to the door of my car when I left. I couldn't be bothered moving it so I just drove away. The spider was a sad remnant of a spider when I got to work, but the egg case was still attached. I wiped it away. Normally I don't kill spiders, but that was a really dumb place to lay eggs.

Buggy. Sounds to me like the universe is speaking to you. I think the presence of such creatures has significance. But what is it?
You should see the spiders at my house...heh heh heh...
