Default Euphorbia ID?

anybody know? it kind of looks like Euphorbia antisyphilitica, not sure though. this one creeps along and branches underground, putting up pencil-like shoots for a grass-like effect. maybe 10" tall and slowly spreading...

That looks like Euphorbia antisyphilitica. Looking at the close up, which is a bit fuzzy, the flowers look like typical E. anti. flowers. Are they about 0.25 inch across and pink and white?

yes, the flowers are white and pink. the sap is milky white, which initially led me to the euphorb idea.
