When I was young, I woke up in the middle of the night with an itching in my ear. I reached to touch it and out sprang what, to me, was the BIGGEST spider I had ever seen, which scurried across the bedclothes. For at least 10 years afterwards I always covered my ear with the sheets.
I still worry about it
