Mosquitoes

I went to bed at 1:15am and it took about 15 minutes to start feelin' sleepy. I thought I had finally reached the moment of sleep but sure enough and right on cue a mosquitoe zzeez by my ear. Sometimes, usually if they wake me out of sleep I'll try a few times in a dark to smash'em, I'll just wait until I hear them by my ear and then I'll whack myself in the face with my hand, a few times I've been lucky enough to have instantly pressed them to death on my face, but mostly they just laugh at me because I'm just repeatedly hitting myself. More often though I flick on the light switch, rise out of bed and stare at the roof, trying to discriminate between the 2 dimensional dead ones pasted and the 3 dimensional live ones waiting. After hunting for an average time of 5 minutes I hone in and destroy it, squishing it with my "Travelers Health Booklet"--somehwhere in it it has a chapter dedicated to mosquitoes. Usually I can trail the little bastard in flight, as long as I keep her against a white background, something like my roof or walls but in order to do this I have to squat and waddle(sock dink flappin) to maintain a low enough perspective. When the skeeters are thinkin' strategically they zig-zag between the highest and lowest points of the room, and hover near dark backdrops-- my clothes on the floor and the clutter on my desk--still, I've only been foiled about 6% of the time; if I remain patient they die. My philosophy has changed, I used to be 'live and let live' but the mosquitoes must die--every one. Since I've arrived I've had no less than 5 actively itchy mosquitoe bites on my body at all times. The backside of the knees and the achilles region seem to be the worst places for itchin'. The knuckles and the temple, they're pretty bad too. By the 4th round I was low on energy and close to sleep; I could feel the sleep, I might have even been asleep for a minute, but then the 5th round begins begins and instead of the bell being rung I get the high buzz of mosquitoe by my ear and well, it enrages me. Now I can no longer sleep, I will not sleep! It's impossible! The mosquitoes must die--every one! This is genuine rage! Unbelievable! Up for 3 hours 8 minutes...mosquitoes everywhere, I can't see them, where the fuck are they, AHHH! MOM!
