Thanks, smonster. And I'm sorry that annoying people are being annoying. And omnis, I can't even imagine your frustration with the neverending construction on your new place.
Lorne: My little prince. Oh…what did they do to you? Angel: Nina…tried to…eat me. Lorne: Oh, you're--medic! You're gonna make it Angel. Just don't stop fighting. Doctor! Is there a Gepetto in the house?

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

Since I killed the thread already, I might as well Sally forth boldly with a personal medical question. All summer I've been getting horrible bug bites that welt up itch like mad, and take forever to heal. The most recent bites have a bruise all around them, and the only pressure they've felt is some furtive scratching. So big, allergic reactions to bug bites, extremely slow healing (weeks and weeks), and a tendency to bruise easily. I take a multivitamin...? They tested my thyroid a month ago and it was fine. Any other ideas about why my body is being so broken lately?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I've never been given a medical reason for it. I have been given prescription-strength steroidal ointment. Which is great.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Have you been able to id what you're having that allergic reaction to? That might be a tipp-off to why the nasty reaction, especially if it there's any anemia involved.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Pix, does your multivitamin have Vitamin K in it?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think there are strange insects this year. This has happened to me and you are the 6th person I know who has started having this reaction this year.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Whatever bugs bit me at the beach -- and I had a TON of bites on my arms and legs -- the bites didn't totally go away for 3 weeks. That's not normal.

Count me in the gang of the bitten. K-Bug too. But not CJ. Which really confuses me. If something in the house is biting, why only the girls. Or if it isn't a bug, why not CJ?

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Pix, I've started being allergic to bug bites recently, no rhyme or reason (it's particularly bad with the bastard mosquitos in Israel, but tiny UK gnats bother me a lot too now). Can you take antihistamines? They really help me.
smonster, I would play Words With Friends with you, but I'm really bad and it frustrates me! Do you happen to play Hanging With Friends? That's a timewaster I can get on board with (and often do).
My god, the work, the work. I've been attempting to write a thesis chapter since June. I don't expect to emerge properly until about the end of October. It's been a fun chapter to read for, though!
Edited for spelling. Always good to be reminded you can't spell while you're writing a thesis chapter.

Our wings are not tired.
I haven't had a problem up here, but they have been very bad in Florida for me this year. Repellent is my friend because I will tear apart the bites.
