big ugly


big ugly, originally uploaded by tinkerellen.

sorry to do this to you on a monday morning, but this is what was lurking in my bedroom. i stumbled across him at about midnight and needless to say i wasn't sleepy anymore. anyone know what kind he is? as in the kind that would come back? he looked like a baby turantula, if that helps you at all....

  1. your blog should come with a warning for those of us who are extremely afraid of spiders! don't know what kind he is, don't care...as long as he's dead!!

  4. At least it wasn't in your bed!!

    Rich found one in our bed a couple of months ago and it completely freaked me out.

    By the way, how big was it? The size of a quarter or more like a nickel?

    um, it was the size of four quarters {maybe six if you count his extended legs} places side by side in a square....

  6. I see those in my house once or twice a week. I spray them with Raid, then watch them run around crazily til they curl up and die. I hate them.

  7. Might I remind you that my 3 year old thought it was a good idea to pet a scorpion that was in her room?
