2 mornings in 4 days I've woken up to find out that I had a centipede in my apartment. I don't remember ever seeing one up close before. In WA, the only poisonous... thing... is a Daddy Long Leg Spider, and as everyone knows... it's too weak to bite far enough to poison a human. And since they're so dorky and frail looking, no one I know takes them seriously. Which is probably the first step in their adaptation to get long enough... teeth, or whatever, to poison humans.
Anyway... 1st one was right next to the toilet.. I panicked and actually killed it. I never kill bugs. I always have craig do it. Then the 2nd one was on the kitchen wall... I did have craig kill that one since it was way too high for me. And I was a wimp. I just hope he was able to get back to sleep after dealing with that. It's legs twitched long after it was smashed!!!! eeeeeek.
Gross gross gross centipedes!!!! I was going to post a picture of one, but I want to puke every time I look at it. So I won't force you to either!
