@Timothy M. and @Slytherin Having a sleepover at @Valkyrie  

 

  I had this discussion with an author once.  It was either @Timothy M. or @aditus  In the story, the character was seated on their bed and reached down to pick something up off the floor.  I said it wasn't possible, but didn't realize how much taller our beds are here

THERE'S A BEE IN MY HOUSE

I'm doomed.   

Live and let live.

I do all of those things.  I can't kill bugs.  I put a glass over them and then bring them outside and liberate them.  I'm phobic of bees though.  By bees, I mean anything yellow and black with a stinger.  I know all the good things bees do, but it doesn't mitigate the phobia.  So every time I see one, I completely and irrationally freak out.

Well, at least you realise it's a phobia, an irrational fear.  

In that case I won't remind you of the meaning of Valkyrie (Norse mythology: Female warriors, who served the god Odin: foreboders of war, who rode to the battlefield on horses, wearing helmets and shields; in some accounts, they flew through the air and sea. Some Valkyries had the power to cause the death of the warriors they did not favour) and laugh at you being afraid of a tiny bee.

Oops, I just did!

We all have our things   And this bee is not tiny.

Could also be @Puppilull, @Thorn Wilde and I visiting Val (because she has the best herd of hot guys  ). I liked the comment which said 'under-bed monsters are larger in USA, so the beds need to have more space underneath to accomodate them.

Now I understand !  I think it was in our Guardian Angel story.

I do have the best herd, don't I?   And yes, it was one of your collaborative Guardian Angel stories

My herd may not be as large but I like to think it's on par with Val's

I agree... that said, I must admit to smashing a humongous spider near a light switch in the basement last night. It was him or me.

Do you have the American Thor or the proper Scandinavian Thor ? https://satwcomic.com/nordic-halloween

The best part of your herd is they all wear kilts.   But we don't poach on the kilted guys, right ? Val's herd is a different matter...

I personally like tall beds. Mine is kind of tall, though I can still reach the floor sitting on it if I stretch a little.

Happy Sunday, all!   I had a great visit with my two daughters and my oldest granddaughter yesterday. I knew  my one daughter was dropping off my groceries, but the rest was a surprise. We all sat on the far side of the barn under the maples... and social distanced. It was wonderful, and while it made me happy, it also kind of made me sad. I'm missing so much of my grandkids lives, and wanted hugs so bad.

Still... I know most parents think so, but my kids are the absolute best! They want to paint the house for me, but I'm going to keep slugging away... I expect they will show up one day with brushes, no matter what I say.
