This picture didn't turn out the best (I can't wait to get a dedicated macro) but this looks like a brown recluse, but I'm just not positive. Any insight?

The photo doesn't show a great deal of detail but based on key features it IS NOT a Recluse.
Abdomen and pedipalps suggest a Grass Spider from the genus Agelenopsis.
