I *may* have been playing with a new computer in the middle of last night (new i5 iMac; yum!)...
I *may* have been sitting in the middle of the living room floor with all the packaging strewn around the place...
I *may* have noticed a shadow moving in the side of my vision but was too excited by the new shiny object to investigate...
I *most certainly* heard the pitter-patter of eight legs as they made their way over the discarded plastic wrapping heading rapidly towards me...
I *may* have crapped myself... (or at least jumped out of my skin). A full couple of inches across it was too. And I never spotted where it went in my panic. So it's still in there somewhere...

A massive beast of a spider bowled through the patio door last night, and ran under the coffee table. I was waiting for it to come out the other side and scare the st out of the girlfriend but it just hung around underneath. Ten mins later she went out of the room and after a quick hunt I found it, wrestled it to the ground and kicked it out.It was absolutely massive
A few years ago, early one morning, (and probably a bit hung over!) i stumbled into the bathroom, ran the hot tap, plunged my flannel into the sink, washed my face, then looked in the mirror to see quite a few spider legs stuck in my stubble........... now that was quite traumatic for me, but i guess poor old spidey came off worst!! (spider was either in the sink or sleeping in my flannel i guess) no doubt by now it'll be some sort of modern beauty treatment........ ;-)
I would have quite literally passed a house brick.
With regard to the scratching:
if you get an unexpected tickle in your clothing, smash that spot as hard as you can.
Had that spider been a poisonous creature, the act of scratching would have agitated it enough (its already in a confined space) to have bitten the st out of you. Or stung you (scorpion etc).
You want to kill it dead on your first realisation there may be something in there. Even the tickle is an indication its space is confined and it may be about to panic and inject you with something bad. But you have to get it first time. If you miss, a decent attempt WILL frighten something into biting you. So get it spot on.
Not that Im paranoid.
