Attack of the Bees
July 17, 2006Okay...so the first thing that I notice when I moved in was a small group of bees buzzing around.
If you'll remember...one of those bastards stung me on the move in day.
Well...they've made a comeback.
Not.........................Good.
I had noticed once or twice this week that a random bee had somehow made it into my apt. I figured that I let it in somehow through the door and my own stupidity.
That was not the case.
I'm eating dinner with my girlfriend Courtney, and all of a sudden, there's one hovering around the light fixture like a moth. Jason is not a happy camper.
I kill it. Not but a few minutes later...another one appears. Holy moly, where are they coming from I ask.
That question gets answered rather quickly and disturbingly....Courtney sees on crawl out of the air return vent. They're in the ducts. Next thing I know, I track down and kill 6 more of the buggers.
This isn't happening. Now, I'm not allergic of bee stings that I'm aware of. But I still don't like the idea of them crawling all over the place. Quickly I devise a plan using a grill lighter to burn them to death. Sure, that may be cruel, but I don't care.
So, I think we get them all (bug sprayed all the areas outside where they were buzzing around) and we start a movie. Post-movie, the lights come on, and it looks like some kind of post-apacolyptic bee death scene.
No joke...there are at least a dozen bees in the midst of a chemically induced death.
I had to speed up the process. With burning death.

No joke, as I was writing this (it's 11:10) I just killed 2 more bees crawling around the kitchen. The death total is up to 20 bees in the last 5 hours.

You don't have a girlfriend. No way. No f-ing way!
