Are you sure it's actually a brown recluse and not one that just looks like one, because that is highly unlikely behavior for a brown recluse, and even more unlikely that it would be that much out in the open in the first place

You do know where I live, right? I have massive amounts of them in my house. There is no way to get rid of the damn things. I kill them on a daily basis damn near. It could have been trying to run under the pile of toys that I was sitting in, which was too damn close. Stupid fucking spider.
I had one on my arm after I got out of the shower once too. It must have been on my towel. I got lucky that it didn't bite me when I knocked it off my arm.
I am about to go on a little mini vacation without the kids this weekend. Yay for teh drinking!
