Surround sound buzzing

I have not been sleeping very well lately. It isn't because of insomnia or stress, I'm not worried about work (ha!) nor boy troubles. It's- I'm having a problem of a different kind.

Mosquitoes. Seriously, fuck them. They keep me up all night eating the shit out of me and buzzing in my ear. I try to hide my body all the way under the covers, but they always find some sort of way to bite me in the most unusual and unpleasant areas; the side of my hands, the back of my neck, my temple, my heel. The last few nights I've been turning the light on and laying wide-eyed waiting to hear one, trying to spot it, and kill it. Last night I paced my room on my toes hunting every last one. I killed three and finally went back to sleep. This was around 5:30am and it was starting to get light out which really pissed me off.

Today I went to the store and bought this plug-in anti-mosquito thing. It better work because all this itching and not sleeping is making me look like some unkempt orphan, which is totally cramping my other image as the Americanca harlot.





P.S. I just re-read what I wrote and had to laugh. I'm in Moldova bitching about mosquitoes. Meanwhile, volunteers in Africa or the Pacific Islands live with bugs bigger than a human head (or at least fist.)

Amy, you crybaby, stop being so high maintenance.
