so i was just falling asleep last night when i felt something crawl across my back.... that will wake you up faster than anything i know of, i threw on the search lights and before too long found this little bastard crawling around on my floor. snapped a couple pictures then smashed him with the nearest smashing implement. any guesses as to wtf it was?

If i was you I would check the bottom of the bed in the corners. Those type of spiders tend to swarm the area.

There's also one that claims you have eaten spiders in your sleep.
God, I hate spiders.

I have always been told that the brown recluse has a fiddle on it's back, that shure looks like a fiddle in the markings to me.

And based on the weave in the fabric, it's about the right size.

I think that is a Brown Recluse.

Edit: Maybe not, here's a pic of a brown recluse:
