Greetings from the arachnid family. :)

LOL.....you guys are great. I just think it is so cool to read OMG she is beautiful and 3 seconds later move on to SAVE ME!!!!

She really was so pretty, but at the same time, I understand being afraid of something.

Sounds like you had a little jumping spider justusnak. They are furry and black and adorable...sometimes having some beautiful coloring on their faces. And they get their prey by jumping on it, so yeah, they will bounce around a lot!!! They are just cute enough to be one of my favorites.

My husband calls them monkey face spiders.

She is pretty southern28chick...those guys are so pretty. Do you know if they really whistle? I call them whistler spiders and have always been told that if you make them mad enough they will whistle really loud.

I do believe, this :

Move.

Pack your stuff and move.

second thought, you can buy new stuff later....get in the car and GO!

is the cutest thing I have read in awhile!!!! I am still laughing.

Send her the pics....you KNOW you want to!!!!! LOL​

She's Banana Spider. I've never heard that they whistle. I wouldn't want to make her mad to find out...

Yes, I Really want to send it to her, but I probably won't. Yesterday was her 40th birthday and she's a little down in the dumps about it.....that doesn't mean I can't do it down the road tho!!

Actually now that I think about it she's the one who gave my friends some not very flattering childhood pictures of me for my 50th birthday. She may get an email from me today yet!!

I always blow on them to try and find out if they will.

I know...not the nicest thing, but I REALLY want to hear one whistle. I do know they bounce up and down like crazy when they are mad, though!!!!

Hey, I sent my brother a not so nice poem I wrote him when he turned 40...and I will be 38 this July so my time is coming!!! I think it is just the thing to do!!! But then, I LOVE spiders and would adore the pics!!! LOL

I had a wolf spider that made her nest in my garden a few years ago. I got to watch her dig her hole and then do some hunting, and eventually, make her egg sack and care for all her babies! I like to think she and I shared a little bond because we were "expecting" at the same time...

Hey, I saw one of those the other night when I found a stash of bantam eggs. She was sitting on top of the eggs. I thought it was a wolf spider, but my friend (who I called, "hey come look at this!") said he'd never seen one that big. Now I know what she is and I can brag.

Spiders are awesome!

Caught this `love feast', yesterday evening out by the turkey shed. Though I've really `jumped' on the shot, you can still just barely make out the electric green on the female's, and the electric blue on the `gulp' male's palps?

Those Big `Wolves' seem to arrive with the opening of the poppies and disappear with about the same rapidity, up here.

(spider threads! The sticky silk of fear...

Here are some examples of what I would do:

I stuck my (bare) foot in my shoe yesterday and wondered why there was a grape in my shoe when I haven't bought grapes in over a week.

Removed my foot and a very ticked, large, fuzzy spider came bolting out.

I thought it was a wolf, and my husband thinks it was a really big fuzzy orb weaver. I wasn't bitten, so I guess that points toward orb weaver.

I tossed it out onto the porch, but I think the cats ate it
