Itchy and Scratchy

This week I've remembered one of the things I dislike the most about East Coast summers:

mosquitos.

They're awful. A blight on the planet. And this year we've got a bumper crop thanks to a solid month of rain in June.

QB got one bite on his elbow that swelled up so much gave him benadryl and called the pediatrician. I'm not exaggerating when I say that the welt was at least 2 1/2 inches across. My calves have so many pink bumps, they're almost polka-dotted. It's not exactly the look I was aspiring to this summer.

Bug off, bugs.
