Squadron Commander: "Looks like everybody made it back. Reports, please."
Roberts: "I had a nice ankle meal before she switched to longer socks."
Johnson: "Forearm for me."
Adams: "I bit her on the ring finger. The welt was so big she couldn't turn her ring around for 20 minutes!"
Brown: "Can you believe she didn't see any of us? What a loser!"
Dixon: "And she thought that lemon eucalyptus stuff would keep us away. Just added nice flavor to the meal. LOL"
Jones: "Yeah, I got her on the finger webbing between the ring finger and third one after she sprayed. That must have really smarted."
Smith: "Honey, that ain't nothin'. I flew up her pant leg and bit her above the nice high sock she put on. And got back out to brag about it."
Squadron Commander: "Good job everyone! Hey, what's that?"
Human female: "Gotcha!"

Hahahaha, I feel you. Brett and I will be outside for just a few minutes, I come in covered with bites, he has nothing. NOTHING.
ReplyDeleteSomehow a few have managed to get in our apartment from time to time too and they seem to enjoy their dinner a la Jen.
Good on ya, human female!! more power to you to get the buggers next time!
ReplyDeletecheers,

Oh that is so funny! And a laugh is exactly what I needed at this exact moment. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteAnd I can totally relate because I'm the usual meal for mosquitos on my side of the world.
Sounds like my experience every time I am in the garden. ~ksp
ReplyDeleteLOL! I just looked up my previous rant about mosquitos. It was almost a year ago to the day. "Mosquito crack"
ReplyDeleteI once heard that mosquitoes are more attracted to blondes and redheads. Not sure if it's true, but hey just throwing it out there.
ReplyDeleteI heard mosquitos are more attracted to banana eating humans. Could that possibly be true?
ReplyDeletePS I also tried the lemon eucalyptus thing - once.
I'm brown-haired, Annon's blonde, guess whom the eat alive!
ReplyDeleteWHen I was a kid, we would go to North Dakota every other year- why? It was there. Anyway I would get just eaten alive by the mosquitoes- The ND State Bird.
ReplyDeleteMy doctor had my mom up me on the vitamin B-12.Some thing he read in a medical journal. Well I got bit to death every other night. Thank god for calamine lotion
The voracious little bitches bite me even without blonde or red hair, and with plenty of Vit. B-12 in my blood. Heck, I got two bites when I typed in my last comment here!
ReplyDeletea) I love the way you wrote this story.
ReplyDeleteand
b) Yiiikes! Sorry about all that.
Aacck! I always thought eating vegan HELPED with that! Guess not for you!
ReplyDeleteI've HEARD eating lots of garlic also helps... it helps with people repelling, too.
Jennifer, I can assure you that I have never once been bitten by a vampire. So, the garlic does manage to repel at least one type of blood-sucker. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stephanie. Writing it any other way would have sounded like whining. hehe

ReplyDeleteTouche to you Miss Chile. I loved that little play. I could not have done better myself!
