Georgie's Awakened from a Short Early Spring Nap...
What?
What day is it?
Sorry, I must’ve dozed off there for a minute. For a day or two for awhile or so, I thought that the new Warm Season had actually arrived. I mean, the Flowers were starting to bloom. The bushes were starting to change colours again. I even had to chase away a very beeligerent Hummingbird who tried to built a nest in my ShoeBox (how rude is that?).
But then gradually all of a sudden, it got highly windy and cold out, and it started snowing - A LOT. I mean, there was a WHOLE bunch of snow, which made me think, “What the hell?”
For awhile, to stay warm, I wrapped myself in my wee, bee Blanket, and Binge-Watched old Submarine Movies on BeeFlix (I love old Submarine Movies, as you know). But after I finished watching all of those, about all there was left to do was to sit around and play Online Duel Solitaire with some bee who’s in Quarantine somewhere around Beemidji, Minnesota (he said it was cold there, too…whatever…it’s SUPPOSED to bee cold there…it’s Minnesota, for cryin’ out loud). But that beecame incredibly Boring (plus, I just kept losing, which, if you ask me, is not fun, at all), so I guessed I dozed off there for a minute. It happens. Still, I wonder what I’ve slept through…
Wait a second. What’s this? It looks like there’s a pile of Buzz•O•Grams™ somebody slid under my Door. I should probably find out what those are all about.
So I’m going to go do that.
Let’s all bee Highly Careful out there!
We hear more about the Problems with Gladys HoneyWings...
Geeeeeeeze this is boring.
I did manage to do a little bit of Warm Season Cleaning, so that was mostly good. I was going through some Piles in my ShoeBox, and found this old Ad for a BioHazard Suit, so I got online and ordered one of those just to help me stay Mostly Totally Safe until this Contagion goes away, which they say may bee sometime beetween now and maybee May, or not. According to my Proof of Purchase Invoice, my Suit is currently on Backorder, but will bee here sometime before the Cool Season of 2023 which, if you ask me, doesn’t help me much right now, but at least I’m planning ahead.
Anyway, the Online Chats I’ve had with Kevin so far haven’t really helped much to make things less boring around here. He told me that he and the Primsdales have just been spending all their time trying to stay at least 15.72” away from each other, but that a couple of weeks ago, Gladys HoneyWings decided to show up, and she’s been a real Problem.
“What’s that all about?” I asked him.
“Well,” he said, “you know how Gladys just loves to hug everybody, right?”
“Right,” I said, “Everybody knows about Gladys.”
“Ever since she got here, she’s been totally ignoring the Personal Space Protection Proclamation, and is going around hugging everybody. Can you even beelieve that?” he told me.
“Well, I…” I was going to say I could beelieve that, beecause everybody knows about how Gladys is about giving hugs, whether anybody wanted one or not, but Kevin interrupted me.
“Every, single time anybody ever runs into Gladys, she rushes over, violates their Personal Space, and gives them a Giant Hug. I mean seriously now, uncle, how Irresponsible is that?”
“Why don’t you just ask her to stop doing that?” I asked him.
“We have,” he said, “but she merely smiles and says, ‘Well, it’s times like these when everybody’s all nervous about things that they need Hugs the most,’ and keeps doing it. There’s just no talking to her. She’s downright Toxic.”
Kevin was starting to tell me about the plan he was working on to stop Gladys’ Inappropriately Toxic Beehaviour when he had to sign off to go eat lunch.
“We’re having Alice’s LimeHoneyPollen Salad - again. It’s just the worst.” And that was the end of that conversation.
So for the moment, I don’t have anything else to do around here except to keep doing a bunch of Warm Season Cleaning. Maybee if I’m lucky, I’ll find a clean pair of socks.
So I’m gonna go do that.
Let’s all bee Highly Careful out there!
Finally, some Breakfast...
Since I still hadn’t had breakfast for all this time I’ve been awake, I asked her, “Hey, Gee Gee, can I have a Cookie?”
“Why, of course, dear, and how Rude of me to make you have to ask. And while I’m at it, I’m going to fix you up with a nice, soothing, Acorn Capful of some Morning Nectar. My Stars, you must bee starved you poor thing, and that just won’t do,” she said. “But,” she said, “I will need to keep my Distance, dear. We none of us can bee too careful. It wouldn’t do at all if you were to get sick.”
Ya’ gotta love Great Grandma Gee Gee.
Anyway, I stayed at Gee Gee’s place for about an hour and 87 minutes and filled myself up with a bunch of her Cookies and about three Acorn Capfuls of Morning Nectar (Gee Gee also makes the best Morning Nectar, in case you’ve never had it). Then I went back to my ShoeBox, where this Buzz•O•Gram™ from Kevin (my Illegitimate Nephew) was waiting for me. (I’m glad they’re still delivering Buzz•O•Gram™s. I mean, everything else is closed, but at least we’ll still able to communicate while we’re all having to keep our Distance, probably.)
As we all know, Kevin is currently and temporarily staying with Howard and Alice Primsdale in Salina, Kansas during this whole Contamination Crisis, so it’s nice to know he got there safely…though I gotta’ say that I don’t know what all this stuff about Gladys HoneyWings is all about, ya know? Why is she even there? Whatever it is, it doesn’t sound good, does it? I need to find out what the hell is going on out there.
So I’m gonna do that.
Let’s all bee Highly Careful out there!
