Bigger than a Balrog



2:54 am Tuesday morning: The battle rages on. Armed with a shoe box and body spray, I lunge.
Miss. Duck. Retreat. Advance. Spray.

11:32 pm Thursday night: Stand-off.
The laundry basket and art book still strategically sealing-off the garbage can.
I can hear a faint buzzing.

I despise hornets.

    Um, yeah--body spray. I don't use it often and I couldn't find any aerosol . . .
