I'm sitting in my car and

[kdrake8]

I can't get out. I am paralyzed by fear over the quarter sized spider that is On my car. He made a web overnight. I saw him and screamed but DH was gone and FIL was not awake. His web connected from my rear view mirror to the door handle.

My plan was to drive fast and knock him off. It didn't work.

Now I'm outside of school and I can't get out of my car. Too pregnant to crawl over my console. I just called a male coworker and asked him to come kill it. I won't get out until he gets here.

OMG! Ew ew ew!

[rubber pants]

OMG OMG OMG.

[sunshineluv]

Ok that looks bigger than a quarter. But I am an awful person bc this story is cracking me up. DH would give me the hardest time about something like this, but I would do the same thing as you!

[raynes]

That is a big spider. ::shudder::

[kdrake8]

His legs were black and yellow stripes. My team science teacher came and saved me. Now ill owe him a tasty treat... Or a gold bar... Or a kidney.

For real... When I started driving fast, the bottom of his web came unhooked and he blew in the breeze NEXT TO MY WINDOW for most of the trip. I have no clue how he hung on.

[Dolci]

Yuck! I would have exactly what you did!

Haha! I called DH and was legit screaming and shrieking on the phone when spider's web came disconnected and he was just air surfing by my window. DH was not amused.

He should have feared for my safety, like a good husband.

No. No. No. I would be freaking the f out. Spiders and I are not friends.

[mumegs]

OMG That thing is huge!! I would have gone through the car wash or something.

[katie]

I wouldn't have gotten out either. I mean what if it crawled into the car when you opened the door - no way!!

[joyhart02]

Right?

That was a better wake up than any amount of caffeine this morning.

[katfco]

How scary!

I once had a wolf spider end up in my house. It was not a small one and DH was at work so I had to kill it myself.

When Lillian was a few weeks old my mom came over to hang out with us and said to me "did you know there is a spider on your ceiling?". Of course I didn't ! My mom and I chased it basically all around the ceiling with a broom hoping to kill it. I had called my DH and told him to get home. When he did he went to kill it and it was dead on the ceiling, like me and my mom gave it heart attack but it didn't fall off. I hate spiders!! I can't remember the name of the spider but it's one that doesn't spin a web, instead they jump really good. We are lucky it didnt jump on us. Omg. 

Eta - its called a huntsman spider. We have vaulted ceilings too.

As I was reading this I was like come on...but holy shit!! That is no CA spider! Ahhhhhhhhh!

[shevacc]

When G was tiny, I walked into a spider web while carrying her in her bucket seat from the house to the car. I disgustedly brushed it off then felt CRAWLING on my face. I started frantically brushing the spider off my face and it fell INTO THE CARSEAT. Onto MY BABY!!!!!! I was alternately brushing, flicking, and flailing at the spider, trying not to hurt G, and basically PANICKING until I got it out of the bucket. One of the longest 5 seconds of my life. After that, I just sat in the car shaking for a few minutes before I could leave for our errand.

[kdrake8]

Ummm these other spider stories are terrifying!! I despise spiders. They should stay away.

[laurack]

MURDERER!!!!!



j/k I am freaked out just looking at that thing. **shudder**

[spaghetticat]

Holy crap. That is straight up Spider-Man.

[carawestt]

Ahh! I had a mini heart attack over a cricket in the bathroom last night, that spider would kill me.

[carawestt]

shevacc I would've freaked out too! When Lincoln was about a month old, I had just got him to sleep and as I went to leave the room, I felt something hit my shoulder. A huge cockroach had fell onto to me from the ceiling fan. I almost fainted.

[angiekay84]
