I can't even type right now I am SO itchy. One of the kids must have let some mosquitos into the house and I am being sucked dry. I actually have a bite on my knuckle and my left elbow. I smacked the bastard mid-suck because I can feel the wetness of my own blood smeared all over my forearm. I met a friend at a neighborhood concert this evening and we lasted about half an hour. Even after applying three layers of "OFF", we were still attacked. They landed on her hair and were needling her scalp. They were biting through our clothes. I know that's how I got a bite on my right cheek...not the one I smile with.
Why do we need mosquitos? I suppose so birds can eat them for food...and other animals do too, blah blah blah. The whole circle of life thing..but I can't take it anymore. I don't even want to go outside. The bugspray isn't even a deterrant. They're like little suicide bombers. Don't villages send out those big monster truck things that spray pounds of toxic chemicals into the air to kill those suckers anymore? That is so awful that I actually want them to do that. I try really hard to be environmentally friendly,and while I am not crazy about the neighborhood spray thing, I feel that there is not much of an alternative. I'd rather die slowly from toxic pesticides than quickly because of blood loss due to the uncontrollable scratching.
