I got stung by a bee while gardening yesterday morning. In the grand scheme of things, not terribly important. But for me, for a little while, it was everything in my Universe. I got stung on the left side of the left hand. Near the hairline. Yes, my hands have a hairline. Impeccably coiffed ones, too.
