A cousin of the Wife posted a comment on Facebook today, about how she had come across a jumping spider (actually, in this case it was ANOTHER jumping spider - like having more than one is normal). Somehow, she determined its sex as female, followed by how they are supposed to be pretty much non-existent in that part of Utah she lives, then comments about how they are not as "cute and fluffy as the males". WHAT?!? I shudder to think of even getting that close to a spider (or other large-sized insect - and I know spiders are arachnids, not insects). She comes back to tell me that they aren't poisonous (like I care) but still... I remember raising rabbits, and how to check their sex. Does one do the same for spiders? Because if she is basing it off just color(s) she could be in for a surprise. Blanche just had a dreary morning and decided not to spiffy up .....
And then to mention ON TOP OF THAT, that it is a jumping spider... I mean, those things JUMP! No way am I getting close to one.
Ugh, now I got me some heebie jeebies going on....
