I found this spider on the ceiling of my room one day on accident. I managed to catch it and released it into my window sill later. It had no web as far as I could tell. I believe it falls under the theridiidae family because of its eye pattern, which was hard to photograph because the spider kept moving around

I found this spider on the ceiling of a stairwell in my dorm building. I noticed it about a week prior to catching it, but when I finally went to catch it the spider seemed like it had not moved at all. Once it was in the petri dish it would not stop running around. I believe it is a sac spider partially because of the eye pattern but mostly because it looks like some of the pictures I found of other sac spiders on google when I was trying to identify it initially
