It bit me on my finger when I was trying to trap it to put it outside. Sorry about the crummy photo quality, I snipped the photos from a video I took of it.
I thought it kind of looked like a hobo spider, but it's only about the size of a quarter, and I'm way east of where they normally live. The bite is painful, but not excruciating as I've heard hobo bites tend to be.
