because when i was four my sister came home from highschool and told me the tale of a girl who we'd thought always had really bad zits, turned out not to have zits at all. while the girl was in the bathroom trying to cover up the biggest of her zits, her zit "hatched" and a bazillion baby spiders came pouring out of the girls pore. "it covered her whole face!" a spider had planted it's egg sack in her pores.

my sister also told me you can't squish spiders because their blood sends out a chemical message to everyone in its family. the family members will travel from all over the world to the spot where the spider was squished to take revenge.

all of this, to tell you that i [to this day] vaccuum up spiders and then run the vaccuum outside so the spider can escape if it chooses.

living in a third floor loft in NY with no elevator, i would still run my vaccuum down the flights and leave it on the stoop. after i "lost" four vaccuums in the course of a year, my Dad started having cleaning people stop by.

i am afraid of spiders. ;)
