Bitten

Yesterday around 7:30 ish I went outside to help my grandma prune some of her trees. I will post some pictures of their back yard later because it is gorgeous!! I had long pants on, and a very very long shirt because I was determined not to get bitten this time. Grandma has this crazy prickly tree behind the waterfall. Can't tell you how many times I got poked by that stupid tree! After that was finished I went inside, got ready for bed, and fell asleep instantly.

Woke up this morning and found a big mosquito bite near the corner of my eye.

What the heck!

Of all places to get a mosquito bite. How did I not feel that? Next time I go outside I will have to wear a bio-hazard suit or something because this is ridiculous.

X marks the spot

So at the start of the summer I semi bragged that I hadn't been bitten by a mosquito in a very very long time. Probably three years at least. I guess my blood just isn't very sweet anymore?
Well I was outside in my grandparents backyard for maybe two minutes when I felt something on my elbow. I was too slow. It had already partaken of my blood stupid insect. So now I have a mosquito bite on my blasted elbow which is a retarded place to have one anyway. Later that day I started itching my knee. Crap! One there too! Oh and don't worry, I now have one on each ankle! Worst of all places to have one.

So now I have a constant X on my elbow, knee and both ankles. I need to invest in some mosquito repellent asap!
