Going off topic here for a bit.
The literal worst part of planning a wedding is not the stress, it’s not all the moving pieces, not even the whole logistics of the language barrier (boyfriend’s family and mine don’t speak the same language). The absolute worst part is trying to look for anything wedding related on the internet, going to the comments to get more tips and finding a bunch of:
“Well, my husband (or even worse “hubby”, uggg I hate it) got married in a park near our house. I got my dress the day before at a second hand store. My mother in law wouldn’t let me wear jeans *rolling my eyes emoji*. It was a short BLACK summer dress. Our officiant was some rando that walked by at that moment wearing a Female Body Inspector t-shirt. LOL. For the reception we took our parents and five pet parrots to McDonald’s. We just didn’t care *shrug emoji*”.
I swear every time I see one of those comments I have to control the urge to respond “Oh Em Gee! you are so totally random! How did you pull that off? Not the wedding part, but replacing your whole personality with pure, sheer randomness so uncontrollable that you have to come to wedding magazines to comment about it because it can’t be contained in your social circle. Lol you’re so random.”
And now the internet can do what it does best and hate me for this.
But just so you guys don’t hate me for the wrong reasons, I’m planning way in advance for when life as normal resumes. Hate me for being a bitch, not for being an irresponsible bitch.

If you don't have romance or passion in your life, fictional is fine as well.

No. This is dangerous. If the landlord had called the exterminator, they wouldn’t have taken the job and they would have referred him to the nearest bee control whatever people. They would have never killed the bees because no. What this woman is doing is dangerous, reckless, stupid and definitely not a good example of what to do. She could have died!
Just call freaking animal control.
