we had several black widows take up residence in our old garage. bombed the hell out of the garage a number of times and we never could get rid of them. they won - i moved.

many, many years ago i used to have a wood framed waterbed. had it for several years without incident. then one night i woke up (i worked 8pm-8am nightshift) to go to work and i had a pimple right in the middle of my forehead. it was huge; i couldn't figure out where it came from, but it hurt really bad so i left it alone. went to work at 8 pm and by 4 am i was in the emergency room. my eyes had swollen shut. turns out it was a brown recluse. doc said it was prolly living in the wood frame of the waterbed. i now have a scar on my face where the bite was.

i tore that waterbed to pieces looking for the spider and never found it. a while later i woke up and found a pimple on the outside part of my butt cheek. i thought it an odd place for a pimple, but again it hurt to touch so i left it alone. i went to work, managed to get through my shift, but on my way home i couldn't even sit in the seat of my car my ass hurt so bad. i went to the hospital again and sure enough, the pimple had turned into something nasty and the doc said i had prolly been bitten by the same brown recluse that mucked up my face.

the worst part of this second incident is that i had to show the nurse my ass by pulling my pants down and bending over. she's like, oh yeah, we'te gonna have to lance that. the doctor will be in to see you shortly. so i wait. then the doctor comes in. i turn around and bend over and he examines my ass. says, yeah, they're gonna have to lance that. then he leaves. a short while later another guy comes in and tells me he is the doctor and that he needs to look at my ass. i was like, WHO THE HELL JUST CAME IN AND FELT MY ASS UP?!?!?! nobody saw the guy come in and no one saw him leave and no one knew who i was talking about!!!

i was stupid for keeping it in the first place so i threw the bed out and i haven't slept on a waterbed since.

ever since then i have been terrified of spiders.

i feel your pain guys. i HATE spiders. wasp spray works awesome, instant kill.

back when i was about 17, i was driving my 73 mustang. big ass spider dropped down from a web under my sun visor right in front of my face, i about shit myself. i jammed the brakes and got out in the middle of the road. my buddy was laughing so hard at me. made him kill it before i got back in.
