    Hey! I was wondering if any of you are afraid of spiders :P I know a lot of people normally are... and I'm not particularly in love with them.

    So, how do you react to spiders? I would love to know :P

    Ok, so this morning I was getting ready to take a nice hot shower. Took all of my clothes off and opened the shower curtains. And to my surprise, there was a spider right in the center of my bath tub.

    I looked at it and thought for a second, then concluded showering with a spider wouldn't be too pleasant. So I turned on the water in the tub and flooded him... He started to float around on the water for awhile.

    I grabbed a cup, lured him and a bunch of water into it, and then threw that a-hole in my freezer :) Now hes all frozen in the cup but I can see him perfectly in the ice. So I've looked it up online to see what kind he is... and its a Brown Recluse. Ugly little bugger... Look em up!

    I'm not scared of spiders at all, to be honest. I hate to kill them, I'm one of those crazy bug-savers that lets them outside, lol.

    It's funny, 'cause my boyfriend will see one and freak out, and then I'll pick him up with my bare hands and take him outside. ^_^

    Ah, I'm normally on the exact same page. I can't kill flies... Or any other bug EXCEPT spiders. But its for a good reason. Where I live there are "Black Widows" "Tarantulas" and "Brown Recluses" which are ALL deadly spiders. And I've had 2 Brown Recluses in my apartment in the past 2 weeks. So... I killed them both.

    Kill or be killed and I feel like living :)

    Lmao. Sometimes I'd rather kick the boyfriend out. ;)

    I guess if they're dangerous you better just kill them, it's not worth the risk.

    Ugh i am so afraid. yesterday i was at work. picking clothes off the floor as i always do. minding my own business. i pick up a gray sweater, when i see a HUGE brown blob on it. thinking it was a hair blob or lint, i was going to take it to the register to throw it away. when i see it MOVE. i scream. drop it. and run away. in front of everyone. lol. it was the hugest spider i have ever seen close up in my entire life -shivers- so luckily one of my coworkers wasnt afraid, so she got it. but the rest of us were cowering in the corner. lol funny since all of them are in their 30s except me. haha. =]

    so thats basically how i always react. running and screaming. or if im alone..like if its while i'm in the shower i just stare at it until i finish and then run away and get my gma to kill it. lol

    So anyway, these deadly spiders kept assaulting my bathroom. I notified my landlord and she freaked out. I was like, "You don't want a dead tenant do you?" and she hired a BUG Exterminator to come to my place. And he nuked the place... there were 10 spiders overall ... eww!

    So I should be good for awhile... (I hope) ... if not... I'll just freeze some more spiders and put em in my garbage disposal :)
