This is a house centipede. I believe this is the mysterious bug that Amanda and I saw crawl across her windshield in the garage of her apartment maybe 2 months ago. Thanks to the people that run the webiste Whats That Bug? for creating such a useful resource. Don't tell them, but I would probably squish this if I saw it again as I have with countless innocent tiny creatures over the 28+ years of my life.
this "house centipide" was as fast as lightning when it moved, and it scared the bejeezus out of me. i may have described it as a scorpion shortly after the incident.
