RE: Centipede!
You're welcome! And, I'm glad to share with you that you have a Scolopendra species that can grow up 8-inches or longer. It's the Scolopendra heros, commonly known as the Giant Desert Centipede, and it is endemic to the Southwestern States.
I am glad that it is the towering forests of the Pacific Northwest, not the desolate deserts of the Southwest, that I call home, and perhaps least because 8 inch centipedes don't crawl into my shoes when I am sleeping.
