BEEES

The landlord turned up today (...I feel like I should be grumpy about the lack of the proper notice, but on the other hand, Inspecting the Bee Problem is also nice, so.) and has promised to sort it out, so hopefully our insect overlords will soon be overthrown. Unfortunately, my researches suggest it's unlikely the hive can be moved from its place in the chimney, so the bees will probably be all killed. Although a beekeeping friend who visited on Sunday thinks that their queen has died and they've all gone mad, so maybe they're unsavable. I don't know; bee psychology is strange and alien.

On a happier note, I don't know who it was that added my name to the anon love meme, but thank you. It was very sweet, and added a lot of cheer to a dull afternoon. (I thought my hands were going mega-arthritic again, but judging by the fact that it's just one hand, which is also bruised and swollen, I've managed to strain a muscle. Not badly, but enough to be annoying. And I have no idea HOW I injured myself. I haven't even fallen down lately!)

Now, I have some risotto on its way, a glass of wine and an episode of Mad Men. And Avatar, but I'm up to "Tales of Ba Sing Se" and "Appa's Lost Days", and I'm not sure I can handle all that emotion again. On the other hand, I also can't skip them. This is a dilemma.
