I have had issues with arachnids ever since I read that urban legend saying that a person, while sleeping, eats an average of eight spiders per year. In a half-hearted attempt to cure my irrational fear, I grabbed my camera and used a pencil to chase the thing into better light and snap a couple of photos.
I'm not proud of what happened next.

Indeed - I was just mentally preparing my comment ("how wonderful that you took the time to get your camera rather than 1) panic or 2) kill it") and then that final heart-breaking picture. Actually one of my proudest moments is when I killed 27 enormous spiders in the middle of the night to protect my babies.
It definitely makes it worse that I took the time to get my camera and THEN killed it...
