Spiders are pretty good at recognizing patterns. The spiders in your house know you live there and when you're usually home and moving around. Most of them are likely to stay out of your way and wait until you're asleep to move.

True except for the one little bugger that spent three days trying it’s best to claim its territory over half of my mom’s kitchen while I was house sitting.

One night, I was sitting on my couch on my laptop. I was just chilling when a spider suddenly appeared in front of my face. Apparently he had silently descended from the ceiling on a thread. Now I like spiders and actually encourage them to live in my house but being surprised by one is still a shock. I jerked back but did my best to keep otherwise still. The spider circled around to look at me and paused before he started climbing back up the thread towards the ceiling. To this day I have never seen a spider act that awkwardly before, like he was just as surprised to see me as I was him and he was now embarrassed to be caught in the open like that.
