We've reached the point in Bio lab where we've started to dissect animals, if you consider crayfish and earthworms animals. Although I was a total tomboy as a kid - building tree houses, throwing apples at people's houses, ringing doorbells and hiding - I've always been girlie enough to be squimish around bugs and worms and other nasty species. I actually had to drop out of girl scouts at the age of 8 after running into a dead garden snake. That did it for me, no more scouting.
Touching the earthworm in lab tonight proved to be impossible. I let my lab-partner handle the earthworm while I dissected the crayfish. I am a Swede after all, and Swedes eat these bastards every August during "
kraftskiva", with shots of akvavit, snaps and lots of drunken singing. But tonight in lab, I was facing the crayfish
sober......


The nasty crayfish and the nasty earth worm. My lab partner took care of the earthworm.
