things got weird really early this morning. i was cleaning and when i switched off the vacuum i heard a loud humming sound coming from the patio. at first i thought it was the devil cat’s automatic water fountain running on empty, but it SO wasn’t.
turns out there’s a giant beehive full of swarming bees right outside my patio!! great. i’m such a big fan of nature. not.
the association sent the pest company over. apparently it’s bee migration season, everybody! big woopee. the rep told me that since bees can’t see at night, they have built the hive as a temporary protection for the queen bee (that spoiled bitch!)… he basically told me i was SOL since he can’t reach the hive because of the positioning of the tree branch upon which it has been built. so i’m to keep an eye out and hopefully the bees will move on in a few days. otherwise they’ll call in the forklift.
oh, and after i witnessed the swarm of bees this morning i discovered that thumper had eaten my eyeglass cloth and taken a bite out of a flower i had placed on the kitchen counter… i left him downstairs when he began to fight with a pen… he is a strange kitty.
anyway, this morning was INTENSE. kind of like these dior bonnie stamped croc wedges that i just happened to stumble across during my daily stroll along saks fifth avenue (.com)
i know it’s sort of maudlin to quote poetry in regards to fashion, but–”did my heart love till now?” i want these shoes like my fat cat wants kibble. will somebody puh-leeze buy them for me already?!

Did those bees ever move on? Honeybee populations have been in decline in recent years. : (
