I found a big spider, 2 full inches long with bent furry legs, 4mm wide,
splayed evenly at roughly 45^ angles. All dark grey.
How can there be only one of them? I had never seen another spider
anything remotely like it in the house and it's been 2 weeks and I
haven't seen another one yet. (This one had an accident and he's dead.
A UPS fell on him.)
Have your heirs brought you any gifts lately ?
... tropical plants or fruit .. ?
No, nothing new. No one gives me gifts either. ;-(
I looked at a bunch of pictures to see if I could find what it was.
Nothing matched.
Likely one of these.

I don't think so. I saw pictures of it before but the legs were wider
and furrier.
I can't post a picture because the UPS made it all blurry.
(I was picking it up anynow, a little UPS, when I saw the
spider near the corner of the room.
You bugger. They are completely harmless.
Some kids had one as pets when I was a kid.
A neighbor told me the one I had was known to kill dogs, cats, and deer,
and eat them. Well, I think he said that.
Sounds like a wolf spider but they are not going to kill a dog or even
a mouse, unless they just have a heart attack.
