Attack of the baby spiders

After a long Monday full of yard work and a family BBQ, Ken and I were looking forward to getting some much needed shut eye. As we were getting ready for bed, we walked into the bathroom to and to our surprise we found this...

Now I know what you are thinking...does she ever sweep her floors...look at that dog hair!  Right?!?  On a serious note, I wish this picture actually showed how BIG this spider was.  Her belly was the size of a half dollar, no joke.  Ken and I have separate sinks and this beauty, who we will call Charlotte, was on his side.  I am amazed that Ken actually saw it because he normally never looks down which usually ends up with him stubbing his toe, kicking or stepping on anything in his path.  But for whatever reason Ken spotted Charlotte.  He grabbed a paper towel (a single sheet might I add) and was going to squish her dead. I panicked and made him get a shoe because you never know if these things are poisonous or if they will all of a sudden grow 10 times their size and chase after you (does any other women fear this too?).  I sat and watched as Ken began his husband duty of killing all spiders and you will never believe what happened next.  As soon as he smashed the Charlotte, out of nowhere, hundreds (ok maybe 30ish) baby spiders came running out. It was like a movie...just when you think you have seen it all, the heavens open up and monsters come out of the sky and attack. Haven't you see The Avengers?  Well, the baby spiders didn't attack but they did run all over the bathroom floor.  Now I know you are never going to believe this story and I wish I had captured the attack of the baby spiders but I was too busy screaming and prancing on tippy toes to get a picture. This is no tall tale and you'll just have to take my word for it and pray that it never happens to you!
