Ankle biters

Well, with all this rain you could expect there would be an influx of those pesky mosquitoes. I’ve actually been rather surprised that my house is not infested, especially given the fact that the shoddy construction of this place allows many points of egress. In Korea and South Carolina I’d have big assed biters buzzing my head at night keeping me awake. Not so much here. What I do have is tiny little insects almost invisible to the eye biting me on the ankles while I sit at my desk faithfully blogging for you, my devoted readers. They seem impervious to the repellent I dutifully apply after each shower. Ah well, as long as I can avoid dengue or some other ‘squito borne disease I’ll count myself lucky!

Jerry, the manager at Treasure Island resort advised me this morning that we have had rain now for 79 straight days, amounting to over 200 inches thus far. Raining as I type this too. Enough already!

That’s Buddy’s “when are you going to get off your lazy ass and take me for a walk?” look. We wound up walking in the rain…

A good afternoon of darts. It was a battle of the sexes, but me and Patrick managed to have enough balls to beat our attractive female opponents.

What’s cookin’ in the crockpot?

Why a tasty (if I do say so myself) pot roast!

All in all I’d call this a good day. Shame I didn’t have anyone here to share it with me.

  1. Yeah, it’s pretty outstanding that the shit I have to complain about (weather/biters) is so insignificant in the big scheme of things. You can just call me lucky!
