electriclandForgot to mention...
While I was sanding the front hall, something HUGE with FAR TOO MANY LEGS ran past me. Huge. Seriously. Including the legs, more than loonie-sized. And far, far too many legs. It looked something like a truncated centipede, actually. I yelped. I considered trying to trap it and examine it more closely, and/or reintroduce it to the big wide world outside my house, but frankly I didn't want to get that close, and the next time I looked behind that paint can it was gone.
It was kind of beige. Any thoughts on what it might have been?
(One of the good things about no longer living in Africa: no millipedes. I'm generally OK with creepy-crawlies, but above a certain number of legs I just can't deal.)
(ETA: Note to self: DO NOT do Google image searches for "millipede", dummy. What did you THINK was going to happen?)
