Eeeeeek!
Guess what was in our garage on Sunday? And guess what jumped down our back door today? And guess what my neighbor saw in his dog-poo "toilet" that he dug? If you guessed three different ginormous spiders, you would be correct.
Garage spider is below. Her cephalothorax and abdomen (I looked that up, but I was close) combined were bigger than a quarter. She got to live because I was afraid to kill her. My back door spider today was smaller, furry and black. I killed it. My neighbor's poo spider was a Black Widow! Lovely.
I can't believe I have traded disgusting Palmetto bugs for scary spiders. Spiders make me SCREAM! I am so afraid of spiders. Oh, EEK!


pffft! Come to Texas and live with our big ass water roaches!
p.s. I'm with you, that spider is gross!
