Good for you, WindSparrow!
Laga, Left Behind is even more poorly written than Twilight, and (personally speaking) a gazillion times more annoying.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I'm envious of Windsparrow's Nordic walking poles.
all this time I thought I was imagining that the skeeters loved me and it turns out I'm their favorite blood type!
Nah, we are just particularly tasty morsels. DH and I both are O+ and they chew on me and ignore him.
Eat garlic and spicy foods. Works a treat, I swear. I still get bit occasionally by skeeters (living, as I do, in Mosquito Mecca...there's a "mosque" "mosquito" joke in there, but I can't quite reach it and it's probably more trouble than it's worth anyway...) but nowhere near as much as I did as a kid before I developed the love of garlic/hot sauce that I have today.
You could also inject 100% DEET into your veins*. Sure, it might kill you, but at least insects won't feast on your festering corpse.
Also, GOD! Am I a fucking horrible friend or what?!
All you Miracleborn Family (you know who you are) in SoCal...Jesus, I hope you make/made it safe through the fires.
What the hell? I move away and I suddenly forget the feeling of watching ash settle on my car like snow?
Agh.
Eat garlic and spicy foods.
Yeah, no. They still devoured me when I worked in the Spanish restaurant and ate alioli and romesco sauces on a regular basis. My solution was moving to California where the skeeters are rare and about 1/5 the size of the midwestern buggers. (that's not really why I moved to CA but it's nice to remind myself of the perks when I am missing Chitown.)
Meeting dragging on. Don't they know Beatle Rockband is in my car, waiting to go home and be played?!?!

Fools. You'll have to show them, show them all.
Does that mean I can leave early? There is still one more hour to go!
