I have killed two of these in my house over the past week and both were in the EXACT same location. Apparently they are Funnel Web Grass Spiders. 
I read on a website that their bite is not very harmful. HOWEVER, harmful bite or not, they WILL die of spontaneous compression when I find them here. I abhor spiders and each time a season changes I find some in the house[Scary Face]!
We went to Pepper's Deli tonight and ate outside on the patio. The weather was perfect,the chicken salad was great and the tea was wonderful. We sat near some people who had driven up from New Orleans to escape Gustave and they were ranting about how the Mississippi Police had gotten everything in a mess. They were doing fine until they crossed over into Mississippi.... I can understand that statement. Mississippi is a screwed up place and I can't wait to move out of it. I really shouldn't go there.
I have enjoyed my day off, but tomorrow will be business as usual. Well, almost as usual. We have to go to court all day (again, NOT A DEFENDANT! A LEGAL ASSISTANT!!!) to arraign the new indictments. Should be close to 100 people this time. Less than usual so maybe we'll get done shortly after lunch. I got my paperwork started and neatly packed into my briefcase on Friday so I could just grab it Tuesday morning and go. Hopefully the day will go well.

Girl, you don't even know. After Gustav, I went to South Louisiana to help out at another paper, and in the few places where traffic was actually moving on the interstate, !#$@ troopers had set up speed traps. I mean, c'mon ... people had been evacuated from their homes and were already anxious about what damage they'd find when they got back. Don't screw them over with a speed trap!
If you know any little boys (from little kids to teens) who are stuck up @$$holes, they will grow up to be Troopers. I WOULD BET ON IT.
