My city has had a lot of unseasonable rain which has led to a ridiculous boom in mosquitos. I’m allergic to mosquitos. I have pulled a few all nighters because i’m so anxious… last night i killed one while in bed and it’s sort of ruined the idea of sleeping…

Damn, that's awful. How allergic? Like anaphylaxis?

I have an outsized autoimmune reaction. They swell up very quickly into huge hard lumps and are prone to infection… My doctor was a little chagrined to tell me that it’s called “skeeter syndrome” which is a silly name.
