bumblebee

A "comic" drawn to commemorate a curious incident and conversation that happened in our college's laundry room on that day. A bumblebee had flown in & I simultaneously rescued it and the panicky woman who was in the laundry with me by escorting it out of the window with a piece of crumpled up paper. Apparently the woman was quite in awe at what I did and postulated that I had no experience whatsoever with the common emotion of fear. In fact, I am well acquainted with it. I simply don't count bumblebees among our scariest contemporaries.
