I didn't know you were gonna be a bee-keeper, -t. Nifty! Do you have plans for the honey and wax?
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I can't get the addictive game to load. I think you are all taunting me. Or you have broken it.

Not plans as such. I'm approaching it more as having a pet beehive then anything else. I get my starter colony with queen sometime the next couple of weeks, it'll be a few months at least before there's excess honey and wax to be dealt with. I do expect to be extracting eventually, though.
Oh, I do plan to give honey to my neighbors to thank them for not complaining, since having a hive within 50 feet of someone else's structure is technically illegal and our houses are too close together to abide by that. And I eat local honey every day in hopes it will help my allergies - can't get more local than from my backyard! That adds up to about a pound a month.

For some reason I consistently read this threat title as Bjork Bjork Bjork.

Sounds like a neat hobby. And great for the local plant-life, too.

The status is NOT quo.
This title combined with my current tag makes me laugh. I feel like I'm having a rhyming fight with Natter.

BORK! SPORK! BJORK!
Hookers and blow everybody! :)
I'm procrastinating since I have very little real work to do. What I SHOULD do is just DO IT, and have it done with. ...and that's never been my style.
This weekend I am going dancing (yay, it's been two weeks because I was on vacation, and now I am craving some twirling!). And then I don't know. I should probably make some plans.
What I am trying to figure out: if I change my plane ticket, I can attend a conference. But I don't have anywhere to stay (host hotel is sold out, and I've asked a few friends if they know anyone who needs a roomie). There's a message board for attendees where I could ask, but you have to be registered. I don't want to pay $150 for registration until I know I can go. Argh!

You could have both, I'm sure.
My brain is now trying to turn the badger badger badger song into something with sporks and borks and bjorks.
