bug bites

for as long as i can remember, i haven't had a bug bite since i was a child.  an avid camper and self-proclaimed tree-hugger, i always amazed others by remaining bite-free during every trip.  hiking, canoe-ing, rock-climbing or rappeling, walks on the beach, and late night bonfires never required the use of any bug repellant.

during my stay at the tmt center, i found myself being bothered by the spring-has-sprung mosquitoes.  and now that i am home?  forget hanging out on my front porch as the sun goes down... forget hiking in red river gorge...  forget marshmellows over a camp fire... without bug spray, i am getting eaten alive!

there is nothing that has changed drastically about me.  no new perfume or body lotion.  no new hair product.  no new laundry detergent.  the only things that have changed are my nutrition levels and their consistencies- and the fact that i am not underweight.

well, eating disorder- there's one point for you.  no bug bites.  but i can fix that with some fucking spray.  so..... fuck you.

thanks again for reading.
