[challenge entry] I painstakingly
created this reproduction using legs, fangs, eyes, a chitin cuticle, and a cephalothorax and abdomen joined by a small, cylindrical pedicel. And a large building containing works of art.

Actually I was just passing by and saw this sheepeater in my hallway tonight. It's almost a gallery ok two pictures in the background...

I am worried that this is what was making the gnawing sound in my bedroom that kept me awake last night. This is how big it is :(

# cute.
 
I saw a big old black spider about that size crawling down my doorframe last night.
Having verified she wasn't a cockroach, I let her go about her business

# I was laid in my bed once after being there for about 3 hours and became aware of a sound not unlike a carrier bag settling,
after about 20 minutes of listening to this 'settling' I went to look and found a similar looking face hugger in my bedroom bin (which I line with plastic bags).

I suddenly felt the need to take out the trash at 4 am...

# I quite like spiders
and have been known to catch and relocate them when they are in danger of being squashed.
But I do worry that they will crawl in my mouth when I am asleep or sneezing.

On one memorable occasion I got out of the bath and grabbed a nice warm towel from the radiator to discover a moment later that my nekkid vulnerable body was sharing it with a large and startled spider. It made me scream like a girl (which is ok, because I am a girl) and do that "GET IT OFF ME!" spakker dance for long after it had dropped to floor and fled.

# spiders are evil and know exactly what they are doing...
I was once playing video games in darkness. Doom3, if I recall.

There's this one bit where you have to slowly advance down a corridor, taking out these giant spiders that scuttle out of vents and hatches to attack you.

At that very moment, a little spider chose to lower itself via little spider thread, down from the light fitting directly into my line of sight.

I kind of freaked a bit, which I'm sure is exactly what it was trying to achieve.
