But recently she had the followin' adventure which she posted on her MySpace and it seemed like the kinda thing some folks here may get a kick outta...Or not. This last week was Homecoming week at the high school where I teach. This meant dressing up in funky outfits everyday (anything to get out of wearing teacher clothes) and lots of fun activities. The week before one of the ASB kids approached me and asked if I'd headbang at the Friday pep rally if they got 150 students to dress up throughout the week. I said "sure." Then they asked if I'd eat worms if 1000 students dressed up. I said "sure" again. Why not? So yesterday at the pep rally I first headbanged to "One" by Metallica while holding my Guitar Heroes II guitar. That got a big laugh and some admiration as I'm pretty good at headbanging. I learned to way back in the day. It also has resulted in a stiff neck today for which I took a hydrochodone left over from my surgery in April. lol* Then, at the end of the pep rally, they presented me with a plate of worms. I ate one worm (letting it wriggle and move hanging above my mouth before popping it in and chewing) then I ate another worm. I was getting lots of cheering and applause mixed with "Ewws" from the student body. I went to eat the third and final worm but noticed some commotion at the top of the bleachers. I thought there was a fight or that somebody had fallen off but instead found out I had made one of the boys (a football player!!) barf. LOL I am so damned cool. Went to the football game last night and felt like a bit of a celebrity with all the admiring comments about both my headbanging and the worm eating. And also I made someone puke!!! Our district superintendent told me "You just won over everyone in your building by eating those worms." So my analysis? Eating worms leads to good things at work. How many professions can you say that about?* Unfortunately she's married so there's no pride points fer the family name.
