Flower Power

You know, I never cease to be amazed by the mortals. They are always make life, hmmm... what's the word I am looking for.... difficult. Yes, difficult. We faeries seem to know how to kick back and have some fun but, whoa, with humans it's always "blah, blah, blah, life is so hard" or "woe is me this or woe is me that." Is anyone ever happy in Mortal land? Take today, for example. I was enjoying a cup of the pub's finest nectar when Oberon summons me for one of our infamous chats in the meadow. As we lay in the grass, enjoying nature's bounty of greenery and the bright rays of the glorious orb, a group of immortals nearly run us down with their foolishness. One female was squawking on about how miserable she was and truly taking a verbal beating, equally self-imposed and from her companion, a man of seemingly similar age but of horrible demeanor. Despite his deplorable behaviour, she continued to hang off his every word, begging for more despite their actual meaning.

Geez Humans, get a grip! Get up, get out there, get happy already! Of course, if I am to be completely honest, I have come across one happy couple of late, sweet Hermia and Lysander. Of course, I equally won't disclose what I *accidentally* did to said happy couple. Ah well, plenty of time to fix things!
