    Yes I try to keep myself from getting more. I'll go threw a phase where I'll grab a bunch up then try to hold off.

    Now I want millipedes.
    I had a bumblebee millipede ones. Adorable critters (my boyfriend gagged when I told him this, haha!). I'm not afraid of much, but centipedes give me the willies! They are certainly neat, but there are many other more dangerous animals out there I'd rather interact with currently.

    Yep.. family just found the thing walking across the floor of their closet. Haha. My ex at the time still worked at Petco, which is how I ended up with it. Family called in, surprisingly calm, asking what to do. they were instructed how to capture it (not knowing the species over the phone I think makes the family extra brave), and they brought it in. This poor rosea is so tolerant. Also the first spider I did a pinch grab of. Will try to get more photos With the botle cap photo at one point he climbed upside down on my hand then (excuse the anthropomorphism) apparently had the realization that roseas do not typically climb. I righted my hand and this guy still sat holding on extra tight as if it didn't realize it was OK to move again. Needed a bit of extra coaxing before he walked off as if on cracking ice over a lake, or somebody climbing a ladder who looks down after being told 'Don't look down!'... very very tentatively, and holding extra tight with every foot available!
