*scream*

I was just reading some blogs and making some comments when I felt a little tickle on my hand. I figured it was just dog hair, since that the the most common type of particulate floating around in my house these days. But I decided to look down to see what was gracing me with its presence, and it was a spider! Not just any spider - this was one of those jumping spiders; you know, the kind that could jump right into your mouth at any given moment?

I managed to hold it together long enough to not throw my computer across the room. I flicked the thing (it was actually only the size of my fingernail) off of my hand, and didn't see where it went. So, once the computer was safely on the floor, I proceeded to begin doing what can only be described as a Native American rain dance around my front room. I still don't know where that spider ended up, but now I'm all itchy - everywhere!
