Brave like Amazons

I killed a spider today. A huge one. I did not, although I vaguely tried, to wake S up so that he could rid our home of the spider, which he does by (shudder) picking it up and carrying it outside, where he puts it as far onto the tree away from me as it can possibly go. I know, I know, they are good and wonderful and kill bugs and cure cancer and whatever else people tell me when I start to hyperventilate. But normally I can't even kill them (what if I miss and it gets pissed and comes after me?) so this was a very big deal. But to be honest, I'm not ready yet to get close enough to touch the body, which is a smear on the wall, so it sits there, and I look back every so often to make sure it hasn't reanimated.
If it falls before I go to bed, I'm screaming loud enough to wake S so he can find the body and flush it.
