Fanciful insects

It was just as cold again today, but luckily I thought ahead and wore a warmer coat. (Or rather, the same coat, but this time with the heavier lining put back into it.) Also luckily, my train was on time today, not at all canceled, and only rather crowded instead of ridiculously so.

And since that lack of excitement was probably the most exciting thing that happened to day, I share with you today’s bit of Forgotten English:

People, after they have been fou, feel as they are returning to their wits again, a buzzing and singin’ in the head, which are called bees o’ the brain. Also, when they are getting intoxicated they feel these fanciful insects.
