I get wiggy about spiders and I think the crickets Glatt is speaking about... are they camel/cave crickets? ...these things are in my garage and I can't go out there if I see them. Their bodies are short and round, like a spider...but they have jumping legs like a grasshopper and they can JUMP!

Gah!
The ultimate jumping spider looking thing.... I can't handle them. I might have been okay had one not jumped on me when I first saw them and didn't know what they were...now I just freak out and scream like a little girl.

I also freak out on left-hand turns that are taken to quickly by the driver when I am a passenger. 1988 car accident involving a LH curve where I was a passenger. Luckily, Hubby knows of this phobia/freak-out pattern and cuts me a lot of slack when I begin making noises and stamping my 'brake foot' on the floor of the passenger side.
