What the....?!?
I'm the first to admit that I (Zachariah) have a wee touch of arachnophobia. Fiona is making me specify that it's ME, not HER, because she actually kind of likes spiders and doesn't want a spider-hating repuation. I don't really mind spiders and other uncomely arachnids, so long as they maintain a decent distance from my personal space. At any rate, I don't think it matters if you suffer from a small lingering uneasiness associated with arachnids, insane fear, or none at all to really not be comfortable when you look over at the wall next to you while peeing to see the below looking back at you offensively...

Hi Zachariah.... I think I'd be a bit concerned about unfamiliar fellows like that guy in the pic...I'd keep my distance. I wonder what kind he is? I don't mind the busy little guys I find around here sometimes...
Love, M&D
That is one of the creepiest looking spiders ive seen. And I cant believe you who used to come kill the bugs for us untill you went off to college!! hahaha
Holy Cow! That think is huge...I don't judge you for being afraid of spiders ;)
Um, I meant thing, not think...just in case you didn't know
I won't judge you for hating or even killing spiders if you don't judge me for killing scorpians and I might add.... taking great joy in it!! Are you sure it's not some kind of mutated form of a scorpion..... seriously thats what Jason thought when he walked by and saw it!!
I think you should catch it and put it on fionas pillow to see how spider happy she really is!!!!!!
GROSS! I would scream if that came at me, near me, was in the same house with me, etc.! By the way...what is it???? It looks like a cross between a spider, scorpian and beetle... is it a Sportle?
yikes! I am a true aracnaphobic! hahaha sp? Sportle is too cute a word for that thing Robyn...Those front arm things are really long....ewwww!
I just want you to know that my stomach is churning as i see the picture out of the corner of my eye. I am feeling faint... Kinda weird to think that I catch spiders and stick them in jars together, to "watch nature at work."
What the heck kind of spider is that!! It's looks like at least one of it's parents came from the scorpian family. good grief!
yuck that is beastly...
Love big sister
So is this your way of trying to ward off visitors. Cause it's working for me.
Half spider, half scorpion?
What the heck is it??? I would have my shoes handy!!!!
It's a book scorpion, also known as a pseudoscorpion. (Technically not a scorpion, although it looks like it is.) It's actually beneficial in keeping down your lice, moth, etc., population. But I am glad it's benefitting you and not me.
Thanks Julie for identifying it, I'd much rather ship it off to you then keep it here though.
