Somehow a single housefly made it into our unit, where it buzzed us constantly and drove us crazier than we actually were. It dive-bombed us during groups and followed one or another of us whenever we walked around the unit. Eventually it got to be quite funny; one girl named it Carl, another drew a picture of it, and I added a poem. We gave these to our group leader, who was in on the joke. I know...only in a psych ward could a fly be the source of such amusement!
