Our good friends Anthony and Jen came to town and took me and Luke to go see Ryan Adams the other night. It was just the bowl of guacamole this vaquero needed. We didn't get to stay for the whole show seeing as I had some crazy paper to write and Luke had to get up early and take some students to Millford Lake for an eco meet. What kind of dorkitude is this? It's the awesome kind! One of his students won the competition and gets to go to State. Back to Ryan Adams. That guy is some kind of weird. The good kind of weird, but all the same, weird. It was one of the best shows I've ever been to. Incredible musicians and incredible weirdness. He and his guitar buddy, Neil, were pretty funny. Lots of swearing and threats to physically harm the audience, and lots of Ryan Adams dancing and making noises like he had a tic. No offense to anyone who has a tic, it was incredibly entertaining. No, I'm not saying you have a tic merely just to amuse me. I'm saying...ok whatever, I'm sorry I ever said it ok?
Not only have I been busy with school work and rock concerts I have also been busy making worms. What kinds of worms? The super kind. Once Miles saw Candy the Frankenworm he had to have a worm of his own. So what does a worm for a five year old boy look like?
Behold! The electrifying and all-powerful SUPER WORM!!!

Luke has brought it to my attention that Super Worm is kind of phallic. Whateve dude it's a worm and it's Super and everyone is pervy.
A great big ol' thanks to everyone who commented on my last post. I can't wait to reply to each and every one of you! Look for some Super Love coming your Super way.

Um, Super Worm is VERY phallic. But cute anyway ;)
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that Super Worm is suggestive. Me, pervy? Nevah!
Also, I think I know your Anthony and Jen! Does Anthony teach IEP at ESU? Is Jen in the SLIM program here? If not, then there's another Anthony and Jen from ESU who also like Ryan Adams and we should totally hook 'em up.
worm love...is there anything funner?
Galadriel, you totally crack me up. Thanks for the great laugh in the middle of a Monday afternoon. I needed it.
That's the thing about worms- gotta love the slimy little rascals. And when it's a super worm - watch out. I am a fan of the expression on Super Worm. That is certainly what let's all who question it know that he truly is super.
Did that make any sense?
October and I are having issues as well, maybe he is playing us both.
Your worm is adorable, I'm just glad some one else caught onto the uh well never mind.
Secret garden is an all time favorite of mine. When I taught I always had my kids read excerpts from it. There is so much to enjoy. Here's wishing you the best on your paper.
We saw Ryan Adams in Norfolk this spring and he was really good. I had heard he could be a bit of a prima donna but we didn't see that, although just last week he had a little temper snit somewhere. And the worm? Definitely.
I read this post seriously like 3 minutes after my husband suggested I should introduce a whole line of crocheted sex toys.
wanna be my business partner??

I'm doing a series on Dolly Parton's tatas... sewing is involved, the serious country kind where you gotta wear a kerchief around your neck and yodel.
love the worm!
and I so totally wasn't even thinking what all the rest of these Pervos were thinking!
I thought it looked more like a blow-up doll for a worm! ;)
I honestly thought the cape was Super Worm's saving grace, but what the heck do I know? We made caterpillars, but we made them with strips so they lost the phallic-ness and became a bit more... bulbous. I have to say Super Worm looks much more heroic.
Since I work with kids, I read a lot about development. Around late toddlerhood kids start drawing pictures of trees. Experts say that this is a phallic symbol (though the kids don't know that yet, I guess), but it is also a sign that they're happy. I don't get the direct correlation between phallis and happiness at that stage, but whatever.
Anyway, I'm sure the same theory applies: Super Worm is kind of phallic, so perhaps you are kind of happy. Of course, that correlation makes a heck of a lot more sense in adulthood, huh? But it's also more complicated. An image of a phallis in adulthood could mean something completely different.
That's a discussion for some PhD. candidate somewhere to have with his committee, though.
Cool worm. Nothing pervy about it. He does have a cape, unlike a penis (unfortunately, I say).
Thanks for helping a sister out. Here is me sending you a virtual beer. Or glass of merlot. I have both. Go ahead and pick.
