Call me Miss Muffett
So there's this really weird looking green spider that keeps trying to build its web right across my front door.
It's a very ambitious spider.
I've never seen a spider like this one. It's like Disco Spider - it's a lime green with a red stripe on it's torso and, I think, one on each side. My curiousity about the spider was tempered with my extreme fear of them. After all, just because it looked like a spider going to a fancy dress party didn't make it any less of a spider.
I tried looking up the spider on line, but the draw back to looking up spiders is having to look at spiders and...again...icky. The only green and red spider I could find was a jumping spider, and mine didn't look quite like that.
If anyone on my flist knows about spiders, or isn't wigged out by looking at them for any length of time, and wants to try to find out what kind of spider it was, I'd be interested. Want to make sure it isn't going to breed rapidly and take over my house and then the world.

That would be the Baby-Bush spider, hon. It's easy to differentiate it from other spiders by flicking a little Holy water at it. If it catches fire and burns, then it's a Bush! And if you dare, you can peek under it's belly for numbers. The combination of three sixes is very popular!
