Found two black widows in my room. Still young. Pretty sure some momma black widow laid her egg sac in my room (or at least had one hatched) while I was on the road trip. Lost one of them while it ran away from a failed capture attempt. :/ Got to look for it again. The other is right next to me, also failed to catch, but stayed in web for lack of anywhere else to go. Will attempt to capture again later.

I just want to get them out before they start making babies in my room. I would really not appreciate that. And, yes, I'm still an arachnophobe; it's bad enough that they're here in the first place. D: The ground spiders that skitter across the floor I'm fine with, but, sorry, black widows can get preeetty big. They are so hard to catch though, gah.

Asked to do cartoons for the school newspaper since my sister did it too. I'm just. I don't even know.

WHAAAAT, b-black widows?!?! ;____; You really get those there? That's so scary, I've never seen one in person except enclosed in a museum type setting. I kinda thought they were from like another country or something. @_@;;

It's kind of cute how shy they are, but I'm still no good with them. ^^; Hahaha, I guess your winters are too harsh for them. XD I thought there were a bunch there, too, though. Guess not! I didn't have them in my old apartment (just a bunch of domestic spiders that are reminiscent of them figuree-wise), but we have them here, yeah. I saw a young male one behind the couch once, but I have females. XD;; ACK!
