      MOSQUITOES, you did me in tonight. I took a nap on the couch and you practically ate my whole right arm off. Ironic seeing that there was suppose to be some mosquito spraying this evening in the nearby area. Maybe you sought a last meal?

      I now have ping-pong ball sized welts all over.

      If the vicks is too greasy, Sarna is a lotion for itch relief (sold at most drug stores I think) with the same active ingredients but it's a non-greasy lotion.

      And yes, the mosquitos suck!

      Aside from the mosquito bites, I woke up this morning and there was a ladybug, honey bee, and stink bug in the apt. Weird.

    5. Found two ladybugs near the ceiling light in the kitchen.

      I have no idea what this means.

      Came home to find a wasp in my bedroom. Chased it back out of the hole in the screen it used to enter. My relationship with nature has returned to a point of harmony.

      My dog chases and eats flies, but leaves mosquitoes and bees alone.

      For better or worse, the change on Nostrand is going to make the change on Franklin look minor.

      Ladybugs are symbols of good luck/ peace and change ,, I came home to a HUGE, I mean HUGE roach on my altar - I usually catch and release bugs - not this one - I kept smashing it with the plastic part of a broom - it would not die - my toothless cat ate it while it was still moving,, threw it up later - disgusting - the heat/humidity bring out the bugs ,, have seen many a house centipide as of late

      Man! Another 2 bites last night. I kinda wish that whole mosquito spraying last night was in my zip code. It's weird they left out parts of park slope... I want pesticides if it means I quit getting eaten alive while I sleep.
