Mosquito war

Yesterday we saw 007:Quantum of Solace. I would not recommend it, but it was okay. I left sort of feeling like it wasn't over, and there wasn't really much of a message to it. I am not a movie critic, but that's my opinion. I like the Bourne Series much more. After the movie we walked to the Artisan's Market, and strolled around. It's always fun to see the things people create. I love marketplaces.

I know I am a Varner now, but I still have Griswold blood. And this is a type of thing a Griswold would do:

Mosquitoes absolutely love me here-it's ridiculous. I wake up with a new bite on me almost every morning. In Buenos Aires I woke up with 10 new bites. We have the most powerful repellent you can buy, but I haven't used it when I sleep because I am not outdoors. I started to get the hint that it doesn't matter where I am- the mosquitoes will find me. Apparently, you're not supposed to spray it indoors anyway, and it has all these rules (none of which I was aware of before using it). So, last night a mosquito kept buzzing around my ears waking my up. (BTW- I am a more sensitive sleeper here. A mosquito would have NEVER woken me up before. If you know me, you know how hard I am to wake up.)

Anyway, I get out the repellent and spray myself and go back to bed. He returned for another visit later and I sprayed the repellent on our sheets (which I also find out you're not supposed to do), and then I crawled back in bed to go back to sleep. He was back again, by this time it was about 3am, and I was so frustrated! I didn't turn on the lights, I thought I would spray myself even more with the repellent, just to get the stupid thing to leave me alone. I felt where the hole was on the sprayer, in order to avoid spraying myself in the eye, and turned it away from me (or so I thought). I ended up spraying A DIRECT SHOT into my left eye!!! I screamed in shock and pain, and ran to the bathroom. It stung so bad. I freaked out Danny, and he woke up in a panic and thought something was seriously wrong with me. I had to flush my eye with water for 15 minutes while Danny read the bottle to make sure I was going to be okay. I felt like a spaz-especially since the thought went through my head, 'point it away from you, so you don't spray it in your eye.' It was a lot of hassle, but I will say that the mosquito never bothered me again.
