Avert Your Eyes If You Don't Like Ugly

Top dog in my menagerie of pet peeves right now is the drone of a mosquito as soon as I turn out the light and try to sleep. Mr. Nag never gets bitten, perhaps because he's using me as a decoy. Apparently I have a body only a mosquito could love. I took a little walk through my garden just now and got 13!!! bites on my legs - large, ugly misshapen ones (the bites, I mean, although now that I reflect the legs are not as shapely as they once were). I'm not usually paranoid but the words "West Nile Virus" are beginning to take on a new significance.

Edit: I can't believe I forgot to mention the unbearable itch!
