Squirmy Meets Mom's Approval

I told my mom about Squirmy and she thought it was cool. I think it reminded her of the silkworms she raised as a kid.

She also said that finding a worm in my bok choy probably meant that the bok choy wasn't coated in pesticides, and, thus, better for me. I think she wants me to buy more.

I could start a Squirmy farm!

Speaking of Squirmy, he spent all of Friday on the wall above the couch, but disappeared on Saturday. Will I ever see him again?

Update: I saw Squirmy again after I got home from hockey. When I turned the TV on, I saw him hanging out on the power button, which has a blue LED that lights up when it's off. I guess he was searching for light after it got dark. I went over to take a picture, but I got a little too close, and he fluttered away.

Um, I so totally hate to tell you this, but Squirmy looks like a pantry moth. So you may be seeing multiple Squirmys. And you may find him and his progeny in your pasta, flour, sugar, and any baking mixes you might have. They leave behind spider-web-like strands and little pale-yellow grubs.

I hates them.

But he didn't have any Squirmettes to mate with!
