Dear Diary,
Eat, sleep, work. Over and over, day in, day out. All they do is wait on the queen bee. Well, it's all the drone bees are good for. Granted she needs their help. Look at her. She is the size of a blimp and she looks like one to. Pale, gray, leathery, skin- blaach! All the queen does all day is lay around doing nothing. You would be a blimp also if you did that all day. Now take me into consideration I should be queen because of how beautiful I am. I am 5 inches 2 centimeters, blond hair, blue eyes. I should be worshipped. Not the queen. I don't see what the drones see in her anyways. I am the beautiful one in the hive! Of course, no one else sees how beautiful I am. I should be the one laying around being worshiped all day but the queen makes me, (ME!) of all people, run around all day, doing chores! I have to do something about this. But I have to go to work first. I hate work. I should not have to work. But if I don't help out, I don't eat. So here I go.
Hey, there is Rob. He is so dreamy! 6 inches of golden-brown god! He is the only reason I go to work everyday. Yesterday he said there is a new flower garden by the stream that he wants to check out, so that is where we are going today. At least it is a beautiful day outside. The sun is shining, the birds are singing. And that cloud looks a lot like a cat eating a bird! I love days like this. May day! May day! There is a sprinkler spraying a stream of water for the neighborhood kids. Performing evasive maneuvers to dodge! Rob follow me! Left, right, left again. Barrel roll! Rob where did you go! Come back.? Oh no, where is he? I don't know how to get to the garden by myself! BLAM, CRASH! That smarts! But it's not the only time that I have crashed into something while flying. You would think I would learn to stop talking to myself when I am flying- but no. I have such a painful life. Rob!! There you are! I was getting worried. We found each other the painful way, but we found each other. Oh we're here. There I go again not paying attention.
It is so beautiful here. Roses of all different color and shape. Oh look! There is the batface flower Rob has told me so much about. It really does look like a bats face. I can see the ears and the mouth. It is so cute! There are bearded irises in every color- purple, red, yellow, pink with a white stripe. That purple one looks good. I wonder if any one has collected from it yet. It smells like heaven! And it tastes even better. Have I died and gone to heaven? Yum, yum! Rob says the "Betty Boop" rose smells and tastes good also. The "Betty Boop" rose is red with a golden center. But I like the purple one better. I will meet up with him later. What else is here, I wonder? Around the corner there are sweet peas, bell peppers, green peppers- even sweet potatoes and pumpkins! Wow, who ever this garden belongs to is best gardener I know- and I know a lot of gardeners. Well I have had my fill. Let's go find Rob and get back to the beehive.
Back at the hive, there is a buzz of activity. From what my friend Jo is telling me some children decided to tear apart the hive. We showed them though! We did lose some close friends in the battle. The children won't come back anytime soon. Later tonight there will be a celebration to remember the ones that were lost today. That will be my chance to take over.
Preparations are starting for tonight. I switched my job with Jo, so that I can work in the food prep area and she is working on the banners. I will make a special dish for the queen. Poison-a-la-queen! I wonder if all of my hard work will pay off. We will find out tonight.
Celebration time is here. The banners are hung all around the hive. Each banner has a name of one of the ones we lost earlier today. Each banner is a different color of the rainbow. Jo did an excellent job on the banners. The banquet hall is lit up with lights. And the tables are decorated with flowers from the garden by the stream. Everyone is here and everything is ready to go. The band is warmed up and ready to go. The queen is coming out to say the celebration is beginning. I wonder if Rob will ask me to dance?
But business before pleasure. I have to make sure the Queen gets her special dinner. Jo said she would do that for me, but I don't want any loose ends. The Queen is on her throne at the front of the banquet hall. I have to figure out a way to get close to her. Hey there is Walt,guarding the entrance to the queen. I have an idea, but it won't be pretty. Walt is such a sleaze ball so it should be fairly easy. Ok now repeat after me. "Tee, hee, hee. Hi Walt". Now bat your eyes. Ugh, he is such an unpleasant drone! Great, he is going to let me through. He would flirt with any thing with wings and a pulse. BLAM!!! I really need to start paying attention to where I am going. Uh? Hey Jo. Terrific! She says everything went smooth. By tomorrow afternoon everything should be in place for me to take over. Now back to the party.
Oh my god! Rob is coming this way! Sure I would love to dance! Yes! I will be queen and have Rob at the same time. Song after song we danced together. The waltz, salsa, and swing. We did it all. He even walked me to my room! This is going so well. I love to be in love. In the morning I will find out how the Queen is doing. Now is time for much needed sleep.
This morning there is a flourish of activity. Something has happened to the Queen. Oh no, I wonder what could have happened. Everyone is supposed to report to the banquet hall immediately. The Queen had passed away in her sleep last night. Foul play is not suspected. All I need to do now is act upset, put on a sad face, and take over. A new Queen will be chosen later today, after the "Queen Selection Committee" is selected. All work is cancelled for today. All workers who wish to be considered are supposed to report here in the banquet hall at 2pm. So I have four hours to get ready. A girl has got to look and act like a Queen, if she wants to be Queen. I have the act down I just need the outfit. Lets see. I have the tiger pants with the black shirt, or the leather dress. Hmmmm?? Decisions, decisions, decisions. I know! I can get an outfit from Jo. She always has the best outfits. She has the red crochet dress. Lets go see. Yes! It fits perfect! Queen-dom here I come!
Oh my gosh! Its almost two o'clock. I have to hurry. How am I going to do my hair? Everyone sees it straight all the time. I know, I can curl it. Such hard work to be a queen. Ok. That looks good. I have to hurry up and get to the banquet hall, or I will be late. A Queen cannot be late on her first day as a Queen.
Guess who is on the committee? Rob and Walt! This is going to be easy! I am already Queen! Ha ha ha. I know Rob will vote for me and I just have to wink at Walt and I will be Queen! Hi Rob, I didn't know you would be here. Oh look Walt is here also. Wink, wink.
Well the vote is going well. I look better than everyone here. Only two other bees showed up. I can trip Jennifer when she is walking up, and I can scare away Marie. Here comes Jennifer now. Stick out your foot, act natural. BLAM! And she hits the floor! One down and one to go. So, Marie, did you know that as Queen bee you have to give birth to bee larva all day? No? Are you sure this position is for you? Well, thanks for coming! Have a great day!? Run away weakling, run away! Two down, none to go! I win! Show me to my quarters! My first day as Queen officially starts tomorrow. Today the drone bees move my stuff for me. It is so hard being Queen. I will get a good nights sleep tonight and start ruling tomorrow. I can hardly wait!
Good morning Queen! That is such a wonderful thing to hear! Time to start ruling my beehive. First order of business- Rob! I need a good guy to be at my beck and call. That guy will be Rob. Bring him to me. Good. The drone bees listen really well. Second order of business- no one is to bother us. Be gone! Isn't this great Rob! After I knocked off the Queen everything just fell into place. You and I will have this hive until the end of time. I am getting sort of sleepy. Leave me alone to sleep.
Huh? what is going on. Leave me alone! What are you doing! I am the Queen Bee. Rob, how could you? You told everyone that I killed the last queen! Why? You thought I was bossy! But? But? You were going to rule the hive with me. You don't believe me! Well at least you were right about that. I was going to use you then lose you! What is going to happen to me now? Oh no! Not that! My wings, pulled off. Not my beautiful wings! Can't I just sting someone? No! But, my wings! What will I do? That's not my problem, you say. What can I do? I have got to think quickly. I can't think of anything! What am I going to do?
Well here I am about to have my wings pulled off. It was a good few days. I am glad you were here. Just do not get any ideas and try to kill your queen bee and take over your hive. I guess I deserve to have my wings pulled off. I did kill the queen and take the hive.
This is where my story ends. I will spare you the nasty details of what is about to happen. It is not going to be pretty. Take heed- do not do what I did. Figure out a way to not get caught!
Sincerely,
Queen Bee
