Eek

Last night, as I was sitting at my PC, minding my own business, I heard a hissing noise behind me and Sam (my small dog) was growling and leaping around. I turned around to find a Tarantula in a highly miffed state, rearing up on his back legs (which means 'I mean business'). I rushed out and got a broom and insect spray and had a fight with this thing. I'm not scared of spiders (except Black Widows and angry Tarantulas) but this thing .... oooooh.
