Goooood morning, everybody!
For some reason, it’s a beeeeautiful day outside today, so I’ve already been out running errands.
The first thing I did today was to buzz over to the Hive to get an Official Entry Form for this year’s Most Outrageously Obnoxious External Lighting Sparkly Season Display Contest. It’s very long and complicated (87 pages, to bee precise), so I also had to stop by BeeCo and pick up a whole bunch of 5Bee pencils. The rules say that you hafta use a 5Bee pencil to fill out the entry form, otherwise, you’ll bee disqualified. I don’t wanna bee disqualified, so I need to bee sure I don’t run out of 5Bee pencils right in the middle of filling out that whole thing, ya’ know?
Anyway. Kevin and I spent the entire day yesterday very carefully stringing all the Sparkly Season lights on the boot box. It took us hours and hours, but when we were finished, we both felt as if we’d done a fantastic job of creating an eye-catching, highly festive - and prize-winning - Sparkly Season display.
When we were done, it was almost dark, so after we patted each other on the back for a job well done, I pointed to the Master Switch and told Kevin, “Hit it!”
So he did that.
Imagine our disappointment when, after he Hit It, we discovered there was only ONE light that came on. The rest of them didn’t light up.
Geeeeeeeze. I don’t get it. All the lights were working last year, but would they all light up again this year? No. They wouldn’t.
Neither Kevin or I wanna spent a whole bunch of time re-doing our display, so we decided to enter the Contest in the “Minimalist Category”, which awards the best achievement in Sparkly Season decorations using the least amount of lighting. I figure we lost last year beecause we were one bulb short, so I’m thinking this year we’ll win for having just one bulb lit up. (It could happen.)
Okay then. I need to go pick up the next edited and redacted part of my story, “The Bee Who Knew Too Much” from my Editor so I can share it with everybody tomorrow.
So I’m gonna go do that.
I hope everybody has a remarkably enlightening day!
I’ll see ya’ later!
