xoemotionlessox	4:47p	Hello LiveJournal. So.. I haven't written in over a year, but I've decided to try something new. Whenever I write a post, I'm going to include a sort of diary post to accompany it. I've been so busy.. life really does get in the way sometimes. I'm in love.. and have been for over a year now. I never thought it would happen, but I'm not letting the good out of my life again. Oh and seriously, I'm pretty sick of people who just stop talking to me then expect me to be there when it is convenient for them- so just shove it. <3 Current Music: Skeleton Key (2 Comments |Comment on this)
xoemotionlessox	4:43p	My first post in over a year. As you open the door to your most prized possession, i watch from my window. It's dark with only the stars to light the night sky. You start the engine and I start to cry. Will this be the last time? How can something so wonderful last. When everything in life comes to an eventual decay, you are the constant. I hate being left alone. I purse my painted lips together, willing their close so that I might stop the whispering. I can feel the words on my tongue. Please don't go. (Comment on this)

f_4_t	5:24p	Death of a Honeybee I had a miserable night sleep. Slaying zombies takes a lot out of a person. One day, I will learn not to watch horror flicks right before bed. The dream ended when I stopped running and started attacking the zombies instead. I suspect I conquered my fear, but I still woke up on the wrong side of the bed. To enlivin my spirit, @base10 and I headed for Umstead State Park. A nice jog/walk was in order. Mushrooms were emerging nearly everywhere, I reminisced about the times I walked the trails with Rex, and fantisized about the enchanted forest. A Cooperhead played chicken with us on the trail. We bowed out and let him win, as he looked very lively, healthy and determined to win. We decided to end our healthy 5 mile walk with a healthy meal. Off to Whole Foods we went. As @base10 paid the cashier, I got started on cleaning the table and taking a load off. As I began to wipe the crud from the tabel top and shoo the flies, I noticed a lone honeybee kicking around on the table. Thinking she got stuck in goo, I picked her up and took a look at her. No goo, but she was definitely injured. I wish I had the courage, compassion, or stupidity to have quickly squashed her like a grape and put her out of her missery. She was clearly suffering. Instead, I held her in my hands and stroked her as see continued to roll upside down, shiver and eventually passed away. For a brief period of time she was loved, whether she knew it or not. We ate quietly and stared out the window, watch a friend of Ms. Bee buzz around the glass trying to get out. As we left the store, we swooped her up and took her with us. I can still hear her buzz as she broke free right before the exit and flew excitedly out the sliding doors. As for Ms. Bee, she was laid to rest in a basil plant outside the store. Honey bees have been suffering an awful plight the last several years. In late June 2008 Burts Bees, Häagen Dazs and several others went to Capital Hill to discuss the issues facing the honey bee. Colony Collapse Disorder is wiping out these tiny creatures who add so much flavor to our lives. Did you know: Eating local honey can assist some people in overcoming allergies. Bee venom has been used to treat arthritus and is being tested in Iran as a cure for MS. Bee propolis may be good for various mouth sores and genital herpes North Carolina Bee and Honey Act of 1977 "declares that it is in the public interest to promote and protect the bee and honey industry in North Carolina". There really is a Flight of the Bumble Bee (.pdf). It is much more elegant than the Chicken Dance Here's to my favorite stingy little creatures. Current Mood: mellow (Comment on this)
