female Kukulcania?
Browse through these and see what you think. They aren't dangerous and I've heard some can live for 10 years.

Kukulcania?
Looks pretty close. We seem to be in the habitat area. I gave it to some neighborhood kids who've kept it alive these last 3 weeks. It's a tremendously large spider for this area, but was not aggressive at all as I corralled it into the jar.

"Southern House Spider" has a nice ring to it...now if I can just convince the wife how many insects it eats...
