calamine lotion, camphor, other unpronounceable things... I'm covered in goo.

I'm home again and I can't sleep; many, many mosquito bites on my ankles and calves.
*whimpers, tries not to scratch*

Stupid mosquitoes.

This is up late for you! I didn't know your conference was outdoors! Poor thing. How do you sleep in goo?

Hope you get some sleep.

It wasn't outdoors. I visited a friend after it was over and we sat outside chatting for hours and I ended up a tasty treat for lots of bloodsucking fiends.

You don't sleep in goo. It doesn't work. >:(

Death to mosquitoes!

Hee! The light saber might be a leetle overkill? Use your Jedi powers. Mosquitos are weak-minded. :-)

Or write a Settlement-esque drabble where some minor OC of yours and her kids complain about bugs but the mother charms them out of it somehow. :-)

Or hell, she teaches them out to make insect stew if you want to go all hardcore on them. Kill them in fic! Hee!

Wow, I have a surprising number of weapon-y icons.

Believe me, the insects will be in an Earth II fic someday. I already had that in mind. Stupid biting bugs.

*stakes them all*
Take that, you hemoglobiphiles!
(I still have two sword icons and two with people holding guns! A girl with a quiver full of arrows!)

On that rather un-calming note, I think I'll try lying down again.

'Night Rose! Sweet mosquito-slaying dreams. :-)

(I have no weapon icons. Hmm. :-))

You have no weapon icons?! Fascinating! What does it all mean?

Oh no! I'm sorry the bugs are attacking you. I hope all the lotions and potions are helping. Take care. (((hugs)))

Thanks! It's gotten down to survivable itchiness, except when I wear socks. But that only happens during exercise, because it's HOT now.
