"You know, you're like a thousand times as big as those bugs you're terrified of." --Dad
"Yeah, but it's like a thousand times grosser than I am." --Mom
All in all, I'd like to say that I'm fairly brave when it comes to bugs. I don't scream and fling my hands up into the air when they suddenly appear (unless it's ON my hand, then I do). But lifting my towel off the rack, in a dark room, as I'm half asleep and ready for bed, and seeing a not small spider scurry from underneath it is not what I'd call conducive to sleeping. Ah well--I slept anyway. But I threw down that towel to be washed, just the same.
