lol Red. living in venezuela for the first 6 years of life, i quickly learnd about bird-eating spiders and what not, so it won't keep me from sleeping.
I must say despite fearing spiders, i do find them absolutely fascinating, i just make sure they are in a glass jar filled with ethanol or other preservatives, before i will examine one.
jumping spiders though i don't mind at all, i love watching them up close.
also nothing beats sitting down somewhere and talking to someone or in a rom full of people, only to glance down and find a scorpion sitting about 2-3" from your hand.
i have had this happen to me once, we were at our second farm (in venezuela) and we had just arrived and i was setting down my stuff in my room. well on the wall above my bed is a 2" scorpion just sitting there. my dad tries to catch it, but it jumped of the wall onto the bed and dissapeared into a crack in the wall.
then i have seen it happen two other times to friends(i was living in panama at this time). the first time was 6th grade year we were in homeroom, well our homeroom was in a teachers office and she had these giant pillows for us to sit on. well my friend jaime (spanish for james) took the corner pillow. so everything is normal right until about after 30 minutes when we see a small scorpion climb up the wall above jaime, so we tell him to move very slowly out of the way, and we all run out of the room. the second time, we were in Pedasi at a hotel for a beach trip, and my friend mark was sitting on a bed, there were about 10 people hanging out in the room, when suddenly Mark begins screaming and jump up from the bed,as a scorpion was sitting idly about 1" from his hand.
Another incident that my sister told me about was when a scorpion actually fell off the wall and into the back of someone's shirt >.<
fun times eh.
off-topic: wow i'm like writing novels today. lol
