Okay, y’all. O was a hard one for me. It’s still kind of a stretch but it’s what I’ve got. O is for Over. 

This morning, when we were walking the dog, we saw an earthworm on the concrete. It was flipping over and over. You know, how a bug looks when it gets stuck on it’s back and it’s trying to get back on it’s feet? It looked crazy and I’ve never seen a worm do that. I thought, “Can worms get stuck on their backs?”

When I asked David, he laughed. When I came back and asked twitter, they laughed. 

David told me it needed dirt so I took a stick and moved the worm back over to the dirt. Thinking I had done my good deed for the day, I started heading over to where David and Rabi were. I took one last look at the worm, who’s life I’d saved, and noticed it was crawling, in regular worm style, back onto the concrete. 

What the heck? 

Friends on facebook didn’t seem any more enlightened on the subject although Joe’s answer seemed pretty good. 

I’ve looked around the internet to see if anyone has seen a worm do this before but came up empty. Maybe I don’t know the right words to search. Do you know how creepish searching worms is?

I finally came to the conclusion that maybe I just interrupted that worm’s Friday happy dance. 😀
