Are you scared of spiders?

Spiders eat other bugs. When I see one inside my home, my only thought is that he or she is eating something. Which, of course, grosses me out. I wonder what bugs besides the spiders are getting in here.

I did see one the other day. It seemed huge, because it was behind the bedroom curtains, and the light was projecting its shadow much larger than the actual spider. I wanted to draw the curtains back, so I did, and I just hoped it didn't crawl into my blankets.
