Buggers

I have to vent about my biggest gripe here so far: friggin tiger mosquitoes!

I just realized they’re the reason I’ve felt kind of weird and sleepy and swollen for the last two weeks. Last week I noticed my ankle and hands felt oddly plump and at first I was like, “Damn olive oil.” But it wasn’t until I noticed 3-inch wide hives on the back of my leg that I knew was getting more than a regular itchy mosquito bite. They’re aggressive too: My ankle alone was bitten 5 times in one evening. Today I’m stocking up on some bug repellent and allergy medicine after work so I’ll hopefully feel much better!
