Sleepy sleepy

I woke up in the wee hours of Monday morning to a sharp piercing pain in my left arm... I instinctively started to bat & swat away my cats that had sunk their claws & teeth into my arm, but I couldn't get them off! I couldn't even get a hold of them.... I slapped & whacked at where they should of been, but I kept missing. So I threw the covers off with my right hand, dropped my legs over the edge of the bed, stood up & turned on the light. I looked down at my arm & saw nothing, except for the red spot on my forearm where I had been slapping it.... Louie was still on the bed, curled up on the opposite side wondering wtf was going on, & Whisper was still in her cage.

My arm had fallen asleep.... I was torn out my REM sleep to the pins & needles from the blood flow returning to the sleeping limb, but in my sleepy state & dark room, I mistook it as a horrid attack from my lovable & docile house cats. It wasn't until I turned on the light could I see what was actually happening.

Wolf Spider

I caught this in the middle of my kitchen floor at 3am Tuesday morning.
