Things that are Awesome
When we were reorganizing the extra bedroom for his arrival, I found two boxes of books that I hadn't opened since we moved in, which means that I haven't read any of them in at least 18 months. Score!
Our nephew G just turned ten, and last weekend he announced his intention to join the Boy Scouts. He wants to do things like shoot clay pigeons and use a pocketknife. AJ was talking to him about various Boy Scout activities, and G said that the real reason he wants to join is so he can kill a bear with a knife. Apparently that's a badge or something, but I bet it's usually awarded posthumously.
Something not so awesome: There's a wasp nest on the roof of our building right next to our balcony. I am not pleased. I also can't figure out where the nest actually is to spray it. I want to punch them all in the face.

Postcards from the edge
There are two things you should know before reading this story. First, this hospital (also referred to as the joint) is in Oakland, near Fruitvale, which is not the best neighborhood. Second, I hate bees. They terrify me. I refuse to watch Bee Movie, and even one bee can send me into a panic attack if I'm not careful. So, onward.
We get a small amount of heavily supervised outside time in the joint. This afternoon in particular, there were 4-5 nurses and 6-7 patients out there. I was wandering around by myself and ended up near a table where a few nurses were sitting and chatting. I'm looking at some flowers when a bee flies up into my face and I freak out.
I'm flailing and twitching and waving my arms when I hear this. "Katherine, are you ok?" I look over and the nurses are staring at me. I say the only thing I can think of at the time: "I. Don't. Like. Bees." This, of course, is immediately followed by this thought: OMG, they are never going to let me out of here.
One of the nurses carefully says "Why don't you come sit with us, honey." I walk over slowly and sit down. Seconds later, I hear a loud POP! POP! Nurse A, without looking up from her magazine, says "Was that a gunshot?" Nurse B, again without looking up and with No Concern In Her Voice AT ALL, simply replies "MmmmHmmm." I am so going to die in here.
