Okay!
Apparently it is a very stupid idea to sit in a park on a warm night and talk to friends. And participate in activities which require not moving for two minutes.
Clearly, I am single handedly feeding the mosquito population of Tokyo. At this rate, I expect to be devoured alive by the end of the month.
I’m pretty sure that if any one person has malaria on this island, I do now!
The stats (just from tonight’s crop of 11):
Left leg: 2
left hand: 2
Right hand: 5 (!)
Neck:2
Someone at work said that this is because I’m blood type O.
Can I get, like, all my blood transfused, please? Maybe AB. I always liked the sound of AB. That’s the opposite, right?
I just marinated in a very hot tub of water in hopes of reducing itching. Thinking cool, happy thoughts. Cool, non scratchy thoughts.
*itch*
Sorry you turned out to be such a favorite among Tokyo’s mosquito population. :(
I can totally sympathize. Just bought a new clip-on mosquito repellent which if worked as advertised would be just what you need. I can bring one for you.
Meanwhile, you need cool baths and cortisone cream to relieve the itching!
