I actually held a spider!!

Totally off topic but babygyalsw2 do you use Mozilla Thunderbird for your emails because I use firefox I think its better than internet explorer so I was just wondering if thunderbird was any good for emails? Why I ask is because you have got avatar of it?

I have no problem picking up all but the most psychotic of T's. house spiders however cause me to fall in a heap and sob to myself. so you arent alone there.
