I really hate mosquitoes. Especially the ones that bite ME.
New years eve would have been perfect--thanks to Sheepie's hospitality and everyone else's company--had it not been for a multitude of mosquitoes that crashed the party. Well I'm exagerating a bit, since I was fine by midnight. Go Aeroguard!
But it didn't help that we were watching an episode of House about a kid with hideous rashes. It made me feeel extra self-conscious scratching myself.
By the way, I don't really like House. It feels like a sequence of totally unlikely events, centred around a pretty unrealistic character. But I guess it's OK once you decide to take the ride.
Back to mosquitoes. The ones in Prahran are actually different from those on Phillip Island, or at least their bite marks are. Prahran mosies leave bigger bit marks that go away quickly, whereas Phillip Island mosies leave small marks that hang around forever.
In any case, the party was stacks of fun. I apparently fell asleep.. falling asleep is different to passing out right? Anyway, I fell asleep with half an ice-cream cone firmly grasped by my hand. I think that'd only happen at a darn good party.
