Take Your Worms To Work Day

No, I did not let the red wigglers play with the photocopier or laminator! They got to choose the FM radio station for the car ride to work. Worms do not care for books on CD, either fiction or nonfiction.



The worms were delighted to educate nineteen Girl Scouts in pink t-shirts, plus leaders, siblings, and parents all about indoor composting. Even better was the attention they received from the science professionals. 

Now the worms are back home, living in a dark closet, eating coffee grounds and remembering their day swiping time-cards, parking in the employee lot, and hearing little girls screaming ...

"Ewwwwwww!"

Thanks to the many laughs Judith Viorst has provided over the years for both good days and terrible, horrible, no good, very bad ones.

The Eww!s are predictable, but were there any budding worm lovers in the crew?

Indeed, Seana, there were some kids really curious about composting. Hoping they will do indoor composting projects for Science Fair.

My worms do their wonderful composting job outdoors still...
