Death by a stupid flying insect


Can you die from too many mosquito bites? Would my chances of catching Malaria proportionally increase based on the number of mosquitos that bite me? I really, really need to know the answers to these questions.

I went paint balling this past weekend. Yeah, that's just how I roll. You know, me and the guys shooting at each other like some wild human hunt. Whatever... I was a freakin big ol' kid running around with the other big ol' kids shooting at anything that moved. I have to say, it was very addicting. It's like playing a video game in real life. Is it wrong of me to feel all warm and squishy inside whenever I got a head shot on another player? What if the other player was a twelve year old boy? It was either me or him and Darwin obviously wanted me to continue.

So now I have bruises all over me and I was feeling really shitty yesterday. I had this low grade fever that I just couldn't shake. I was also so sleepy and just couldn't stay awake for more than a couple of hours at a time.

Did I also mention that I was the only fool at the WHOLE place that was wearing shorts and a t-shirt. Uhm... yeah. I didn't get that memo. So I have at least a hundred mosquito bites all over my body. The picture above is only part of my leg. They are like that all over me. Why the hell won't this fuckin itching stop. Yeah, I could take some Benedril and make the itching stop, but I don't have any at home. Did I mention how lazy I am and refuse to go to the store to buy some more. I know I have a big ass bottle of it around here somewhere and refuse to buy more. I just can't find it.

Man, do I like to suffer. Maybe the Malaria has spread to my brain and I can't think straight. What the hell are the symptoms of Malaria anyway? I need to end this post and hit Google to find out how much time I have before it gets worse.
