029

For the past few days I've been getting a lot of red, itchy spots over my arms and legs. Consider it chicken pox, except inflated. Some of them are swelling, and I guess it's safe to say they're splotchy and gross and bordering on a rash. Some nights I wake up and my entire body is screaming agony because they itch so terribly. By the looks of them, and by the rules of logic, they don't look like mosquito bites to me, especially because I spent the majority of the past weeks in long sleeves and long pants. So, what other possibility is there...?

I like to think I keep my living space clean. I dust, I sweep, and I wash everything regularly. But this rash is indicative of something in my dorm, on my bed, near my desk, that I'm allergic to... or something that I haven't been doing a good job of keeping clean. The latter possibility makes me really sad, because this would then become something I'm scared to tell on a blog, considering the fact that it then becomes a hygiene problem. But really, I have no idea what it could be! I think I'll go to the health center on Monday to get it checked ..

Also, I finally killed a second mosquito last night. Considering it was 1:20 AM, I scared my roommates when I slapped it against my desk... and I apologized and explained how I'd been wanting to kill it (and its friend(s)) so badly for the past two days. I am convinced there are more in there waiting for me when I change or put on shorts to go shower.
