Yesterday I was tuning my harpsichord when I saw this beastie skitter along the floor:
Anyone know what it might be? My only guess is that it’s some odd sort of earwig, but it doesn’t really look like one… All the earwigs I’ve seen are much darker, and have longer abdomens. It is an insect though – 6 legs and all that. No visible wings. Luckily, it’s much smaller than it looks in that picture – only about a centimetre long. A mystery!
update: Apparently it’s a silverfish. I’ve never seen one so big before – I guess I’ve never seen an adult one though, since this is about the normal size for them, from what wikipedia says. I found what it was by looking on this site, (look on list 3…)
Yay for google! Now I just hope I don’t see many more of them…

We’re mostly moved into our new apartment!
One room is still full of boxes and odds and ends, and there are a few things to bring over from the old apartment still, but we’re settling in!

Last weekend, I went hiking with 5 other people (6 if you count Erica, who’s just about 11 months old now). We did a little portion of the Long Trail in Vermont. It was a very soggy weekend and pretty chilly, but we still had a great time! Because of the weather, and because we were pretty late getting started, we changed some of the original plan. Figuring that it might start snowing on top of Mt. Killington, where we initially planned to hike, we took a slightly tamer route just to the South.

By just turning my main lens around, and doing some awkward manual fiddling, very neat macro pictures can be taken!

Older photos that were uploaded before this blog existed can be found on the old photos page.
That page uses a php script that I wrote myself. I wasn’t happy with any of the existing photo album software out there – it was all too complicated, relied heavily on complicated databases and javascript and just didn’t do what I wanted it to do! Since then, wordpress has added much better support for photo galleries, so I’ve started using it instead.
I’m in the process of moving the old albums into wordpress, so I’ll keep pushing the date of this post further back. Eventually, I’ll remove it entirely!
