"don't let the bed bugs bite" will never be cute or funny to me ever again.
Meagan's Top 5 Freak Outs from Most Crazy to Less Crazy
1. Freshman year at Valencia - telling mom i wanted to die while screaming on the kitchen floor
2. Spring 2004 - Leaving for my second confirmation retreat
3. This summer - after all my clothes were stolen by the hobos in ventura
4. Fall 2003 - The day i stayed in my room and cried all day cause PJ broke up with me
5. Fall 2005 - "I'm not going to get into college!"
and now i have a sixth. yesterday morning i woke up with 5 bug bites. one of which is right above my right eye. so last night when i finally got home at midnight with a headache, the last thing i wanted to do was inspect my mattress for evidence of bed bugs, or read online about signs of them and what i would have to do to get rid of them, or find a baby cockroach in the hallway. i hate all my suitemates for being DISGUSTING. if they would clean up after themselves, we would not have roaches, and i would not be sleeping in a bed that i can't be sure whether or not im going to get the shit bit out of me while i sleep!!!!!!!!!!! there is only so much cleaning i am capable of doing on my own!!! bahajhasdf;lkja sd;lfkj!!Q!!!!!!!
needless to say, i had a major freak out. i would say that it falls between number 2 and 3 on my current list, in terms of intensity. it was one of those ones where because you feel violated all your other anxieties come flowing out. so i called my dad and he told me i should have known this would happen cause i AM living in new york city. and he helped a little bit, but my mom wasnt there, and she is the one person who has calmed me down every single other time i had a freak out like this one. so instead of being soothed to sleep, i ate three candy bars and fell asleep on top of my blankets cold and sick with benadryl all over me.
this morning i'm definitly more rational. i actually woke up with zero tension in my neck which was wonderful since i've been working on that a lot in studio. and things i was confused about are suddenly clearer. so i guess it was good that i bawled my eyes out. as for the actual problem of the bed bugs, im going to sleep in my bed tonight, and see if i get bitten. talk to the building people tomorrow, and when rosey gets back, we can take on the task of washing everything we own, if need be. ...it could just be a spider. i'm really hoping its just a spider. in the meantime, all i can do is vaccum like i do every weekend.
okay, study time.
