a few of many bites, aren't you jealous

they suck!

they suck your blood like mosquitoes. their bites are horrible itchy marks, considerably more than mosquitoes.

i've been lucky and haven't had any bites until this week whereas twiddle thumbs has been bombarded by them early on. i just can't stand it. we've tried to figure out what works best and are trying a variety of ointments. i read that taking b vitamins helps repel insects but it can take 4-6 weeks to take effect. (specifically b1 but you have to take a multi- because increased levels of b1 causes your body to stop producing the other b vitamins. i'll just take their word for it because i am probably not getting enough b vitamins anyway.) tonight i begin taking vitamin b pills.

these bites are really horrible. hell would be this. stuck with these bug bites all over with no relief.

apparently we recently have a flea or two or similar creature in the apartment. feet are getting bites and its quite annoying. saw a little jumping thing. tried to capture it but it got away, damn jumping!
