He was terrified but had to live through it in Boot Camp. Don't think you can tell the Drill Sarge you're afraid of bugs. Not Bunny.
Thanks, Nucky, although I feel bad for your son, it makes me feel better not to be alone in my fear. Mine started very young and I think I have gotten a lot better, but those big ones - I should feel bad for scaring the bejeebers out of my husband. He thought someone had broken into the house or something the way I screamed and carried on. Poor guy, I don't know how he puts up with me sometimes. Let's just say his calmness way outweighs my not so calm.

Today is Thursday, Oct 4th, the day that all spiders who cross my path should be afraid. I'm on the war path. I did not catch the sucker which is the reason I thought I would lose sleep over it - I didn't - so you can bet I will be on NOTHING but high alert today.
