This appears to be a nursery web spider, Pisaurina mira. See http://bugguide.net/node/view/524810/bgimage for another image.

Some of my friends think it's a brown recluse. I hope not, but it does seem to have a faint fiddle mark. Thanks.

It's definitely not a brown recluse.

See the range map.
You do not have them in your area.
Brown recluse always seems to be the first spider pinned on anything.
