{March 1, 2008}   Bees ruined my day

So I’m sitting at my computer trying to decide what we’re going to do for the day when I hear something over by the window. I thought it was something outside at first but when it registered that it was inside I started to freak out a little. So I take a closer look and notice that a bunch of bees are flying around both inside and outside of the window. How they got in I still don’t know… but I yell for my husband and look in our cabinet for some bug spray. I thought I had bee spray since I had this problem before at another apartment, but I can’t find any. So I have to use normal bug spray and I’m afraid it won’t work and they will just get mad and fly back at me! But I spray and spray and then he hands me a shoe so I can squish them as they fall… yes thanks for all the help dear handing me one of my good shoes so I can get bug spray and bee guts all over it… haha… so anyway… Did I mention I’m allergic to bees?? so I call the office and I knew it would ring so much it gets transfered to the central office because they NEVER answer the damn phone, and half the time they’re not even in the office to answer the phone… so I talk to central office dispatching and at first he really didn’t get that they were inside because at one point he sounded surprised, “Oh, they’re in the bedroom? They’re inside?” Yes Jackass thats what I’m freaking out about, they’re inside! I only mentioned that I couldn’t even go outside because there was a swarm of them on our porch so I couldn’t go to the office to tell them about it so I’m calling you. argg. So I tell him when he calls maintenance to stress I need someone immediately because I’m allergic to bees.  So we’re waiting and waiting for someone to come and an hour goes by… I call back. “yes Miss, he did get ahold of the office and they are aware of the problem. I”m sorry theres nothing else I can really tell you except try to call the office to see where you are on their list.” I tried calling but they never answer their phone! “I’m sorry about that, would you like their voicemail?” sure! I’ll just leave a message so they Don’t call me back. Yeah all day and nothing. He even said he filed it as an emergency. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. I hate these apartment people! they’re worthless!!

So the only pic I have of this whole ordeal is the dead bee I left on the windowsill… yeah kinda gross but while I was afraid for my life from them flying around I wasn’t thinking ‘hm I should take a picture to blog about this’ haha. and it was the only event worth talking about today since this ruined the plans, so I had nothing else haha.
