un ver solitaire

[arisbe]

I had un ver solitaire? What was that? A solitary worm? A lonely worm. A worm that kept to itself; a moody worm. My kind of worm. An individualistic worm that had taken up residence in my intestines. A worm of character. The English term suddenly snapped into my head. "You mean ... I have a ... I gotta ... there's a para- a parasite ... a living thing ... in me?"

Why am I about to admit I've had pinworms?

Stranger still, it seemed like a normal thing to my then roomie. Was in england at the time, maybe parasites are more common or socially acceptable overseas?

I've been wondering for some time now what the song "More than a woman to me" means...I mean, who or what, is more than a woman...Hilary Clinton?

Actually I believe the song is about transsexuality.
