My wife, the monster Slayer
Bree did a really brave thing this morning. i wont get into the gory details, but she caught one of these from our daughter's room this morning with the vacuum:
http://www.uidaho.edu/so-id/entomology/malehobo.jpg (I linked it because i want her to see this, but she doesnt need to see the spider pic...) It was apparently the size of a silver dollar (she said the body itself was a good 3/4 inch). Now, Bree is EXTREMELY arachnophobic. little tiny spiders scare her. She was petrified by this thing, and I couldnt help because i was 5 minutes from work, which meant i was 85 minutes form home. But she fought through the fear and got that sucker, and now it is in the vacuum on the back deck, waiting for me to empty it. :)

Yeah, we have wolf spiders around our apartment complex, too. Those things are fuckin' nasty as hell, sometimes we find em' inside... I know spiders are helpful and all, but they're so damn creepy.

When I lived in Georgia, a spider came into the house once that was the size of my HAND, I swear. It stood about an inch off the floor too. I forced myself to get close enough to throw a magazine at it, and the evil bastard started RUNNING AROUND THE FLOOR with the magazine still on TOP OF IT. Finally I threw a shoe on top of the magazine and squashed the sucker into spider oblivion. Uh, it makes me ill just thinking about it. I hate spiders so much.

true story that threw me into a near-psychotic state of arachnophobia for close to 10 years:
when i live din germany the second time, i was about 12 halfway through the first year we were there. there was a field with waist high grass across the street from where i lived that i would play in all the time. i was in it one time cutting the heads off of stinging nettles with a stick when i noticed a HUGE brown spider by my foot, looking at me. it was easily 2 inches across with it's legs bent. i lokked around real quick for a way out wheree i wouldnt get stung (the field was mostly nettles). before i got a chance to move, i felt something on my leg, UNDER my pant leg. i looked down and the thing was so big, my pants were moving as it climbed. Think of Jerry running around under the carpet in a Tom and Jerry cartoon. i dont think anything in my life has ever gotten me to move that fast before or since. I RAN full tilt through the nettles until i hit the road, the dropped my pants off, stomped on them (I had to fight to get them over my shoes) and ran like hell for the house. Imagine a skinny-ass pasty 12 year old running and screaming, trying not to cry. I had to get my pants to get my keys, because the front door automatically locked when it closed. from that point on, i would be paralyzed if i saw a spider. And that part of germany is crawling with big-ass house spiders...
