Ever wake up with a spider leg caught between your teeth, and no spider to show for it?

I have had the unfortunate experience of this very occurrence. I was told once by a doctor that I was allergic to "A" spider, of which particular species he was unsure, because of a reaction I had when I was a child to a spider bite. Because of this I have since been afraid of being bitten again. So of course one night I was asleep and I thought I felt something on my face. Freaking out like the girl I am slapping at myself and screaming frantically I must have slapped whatever it was into my mouth. Seeing as I was screaming at the same time, on the inhale I swallowed it. Turns out it was the same kind of spider that I was bitten by before, only this time instead of my leg swelling it was half of my face. And the worst part.... I still don't know what KIND of spider it was.

Well,one time,I was writing a letter and felt a tickle on my ear.It was a spider getting ready to dive in.Or tell me a secret.Didn't wait to find out which.They used to have a habit of dropping down on me when I was reading.They would run across my book and freak me out.Every now and then I'll feel something crawling on my arm or hand and it will be a little one.They also would drown in my coffee pot if I left anything in it after I turned it off.Chances are,I've eaten one or two in my sleep.Maybe that's why I wake up with a sore throat.The weird thing is that I never see them coming.Spiders and moths seem attracted to me.I don't even want to think about what that means.

Yes. Unfortunately, I was awake. Driving windows down and one must have been floating around. EWWWWW!!!!
FYI: I've heard that it's more then one in a lifetime. Try like between 4-8. There is a spider for every 4 square feet on Earth. No matter how clean your house is, they're there.

Isn't the saying that you eat about 8 spiders in your sleep through your entire lifetime? So that averages about 1 every ten years or so - so my guess is that I've probably eaten one or two in my sleep by now.

Probably. and I've woken up with spider bites in the middle of the night while sleeping outdoors.

No. I go on spider killing sprees and smush all the ones I can find. I don't think there have been any in my room to be eaten.
