Blood suckers


Mosquitoes should all be killed as soon as possible. I figured, hey its November surly all these horrible insects have got to be gone by now. Well I was wrong. Out in the hinter lands of Texas, mosquitoes still have a small grasp on the world. And I’m pretty sure I just helped to extend their life for at least another month, or until a really good cold snap comes through. I think I walked away from my weekend in the country with no less than eight bug bites. All resulting from the dreaded mosquito, needless to say I hate with a passion mosquitoes. Hopefully when we venture down to San Antonio they won’t have any there. Other wise I think I’ll have to bring my bug spray.

I got attacked at my neighbors over the summer and had a bunch on my legs. They itched like crazy! I haven't been bitten in years and then WHAMO!

I'm with you, sister! They should all die. I am the first to get bitten, and they swell up like crazy even if I don't scratch. I don't travel anywhere - anywhere! - without hydrocortizone cream in my purse. Coleman laughs at me and thinks it odd for a vegetarian to be so completely committed to violently killing animals, but I have tried to make him understand that they're not really animals: they're blood-sucking evil beings who only wish me ill. Thus, they have to die. I hope it gets cold enough soon to kill them off for you!
