Glad to see you got the special treat for Halloween I sent you!

If it bit you, then maybe you'll develop some super powers....like being able to stand spiders... and based on the color and design of the spider, you might be able to coordinate paisley clothes with your "spidey-sense"?

For those creepy, crawly, thingys here is a useful site (was't impressed with the search tool):

No question that is a marbled orb spider. The markings on it's back are near identical in shape to what's on the picture.
