 there's a mob of fruit flies engulfing the kitchen.  i've put out traps.  i've even done the dishes...most of them.  i need my mom to come suck them up with the vacuum cleaner.

my hair has formed fine mesh net clumps in the back.  i imagine it's like the mithril shirt that saved frodo from being skewered by the ogre. i'm not sure what the back of my head needs protection from...probably fruit flies and silver fish.  

i know i'll be crying in the shower as i try to detangle it.  

on monday we published the news & views.  i worked long hours the week before to get it ready.  too intense.  but this is the issue i'm getting a lot of positive feedback about.  i didn't think it was that stupendous, but you never know what people are going to like.  the rest of the week was low key.  i even went home on time on some days.

we had an emergency manager's meeting on zoom today to discuss drbonniehenry's new rules and how it will effect us at work. basically i fooled everyone into thinking my hair was lookin fiiiine.  that's because they can't see the puff clouds of nests in the back.  where birds live.

speaking of birds we have become obsessed with hummingbirds at work.  we noticed one searching our garden one day so we decided to get a feeder.  so we did.  and 2 hummingbirds came! and we all squealed with delight and watched them and filmed them.  one member comes by just to see the hummingbirds.  we are going to get another feeder..  then i said we should create habitats for many animals, like squirrels and bunnies... but we don't know how they'll get to our 3rd floor balcony.  pascale suggested a squirrel ladder...we can do it!

i just fell asleep with my fingers on the keyboard.  i take that as really obscure vague sign that i should go to bed.  i know i'm just winging the interpretation but of that sign but you never know...

What do your traps look like? I have found a have to be hard to get into so that they get stuck in there. I want my new News and Views. And congratulations on being able to read your body language.

Vacuuming is the best way to do it IMO. Sometimes it seems like traps just attract more.
