Little Miss Muffet

There is a nursery rhyme that springs to mind sometime, although not often, but often enough for me to wonder, then what happened?

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the rhyme here is the orginal lyrics and/or words:

Little miss muffet
Sat on her tuffet
Eating her curds and whey
Along cam a spider
And sat down beside her
And frightened miss muffet away.

So... then what happened? Did miss muffet come back for her curds, and possibly her whey?

Was she frightened because the spider was big or poisonous, and if it was the latter, where did she go to learn how to identify certain arachnids? Assuming this particuar spider was rare, it would've had to be quite an in depth course. And what was she thinking taking this course? There is no indication as to the occupation of miss muffet and a spider course would leave you with quite a limited career path, I imagine.

Did she come back for the curds? Surely the spider would leave eventually and miss muffet could at least go back to get her cutlery. Is the spider going to eat her food because I would find that quite unlikely. She could've brought bug spray back and destroyed the hideous creature.

I suppose miss muffet may have been allergic and therefore her fright is justified.... Wait a minute, I've neglected something in my ramblings. No where in the rhyme does it say miss muffet left her curds and whey there, and no where does it say she took them with her. I think I've stumbled upon "Schrodiner's curds and whey", where by the curds and whey exist in a state of taken in and not taken in simultaneously until someone goes and asks miss muffet what she did. Intersting, or is it.

How does a spider sit down anyway?
