Itsy-bitsy spider

Last night, while getting ready for bed, I noticed a small brown spider moving slowly across the floor. Usually, I leave spiders alone since they eat the bugs I really don't want in the house, but something about this one made me think twice. I killed it and checked it out. As I suspected: brown recluse, complete with little violin pattern on it's thorax. Great. The second most deadly species of spider in the US has taken up residence in my house. Uh! Kansas!

On a more happy note: Only four weeks till the arrival of Princess Miriam Littlegirl!
