I got some mosquito bites from painting the deck on Friday. It is so ridiculously itchy, but I know I shouldn't scratch it because it'll create a scar or something of that sort...

anyway, bug bite experiences anyone?

the world is a vampire,



All over my sunburns... which happen to be all over my body. And when I say all over, I mean ALL over.

yowch, that sounds mighty painful. sunburn + bug bites.

I've never gotten a sunburn in my life before, but that's probably because I've got darker skin than most people.

I'm one of those white as ******** people. I'm barely a step up from gingers. That and the fact that I spend all my time in the middle of the ocean without any form of shade, and my extreme aversion to sun tan lotion. It's just disgusting. I can't stand the feeling of it.

*raises hand*

When I was a little girl, I kept getting my legs all bit up by mosquitos! The most I've ever gotten was 30! But that included my arms. sad

And yeah, scratching to the point that the bite opens and spews out the saliva or whatever that clear thing is, or worse blood, which you don't want b/c it hurts way worse, leaves a little dark spot after the bite goes away. But I think the dark spot fades away after a long while.

Ouch. I remember that happening. I learned the hard way that you should always scratch the area around your bite, not the actual bump.

Yeah, I always did that! But then when I'm tired or drowsy I just instinctively scratch at the itchy part, and it's usually the center. gonk But since I had long nails all the time, there was some relief anyway.

sun tan lotion = lotion that helps you tan better without burning
sun screen = lotion that prevents you from tanning and burning as much
well, that was what I was told

lol, I scratch around the bump too...
and THIRTY bites???! you must be a mosquito magnet or something. the stuff that comes out is pus, not saliva.

They both feel disgusting.
I go for the get burned so many times that you're so tanned once it fades that you don't get burned any more method.
