Imaginary Ants in my Pants

And on my arms, and in my hair...

I'm always a little randomly itchy and tingley in places. It often feels a wee bit like bugs are crawling on me, and at any given time
(that I start paying attention to it), there are three or four spots on my body suggesting that they could use a scratch. Is this normal? I have no idea. But such is my fate. (If you have ideas, I'd love to hear them. I moisturize like crazy, which helps, but doesn't stop it.)

Today I discovered that our kitchen has been overrun by tiny black ants. How the fuck did ants get to the fourth floor of this building? I did a quick cleanup, and put the cat-food bowl in a plate of water, and will be more thorough in cleaning once I finish working for the day.

In the several hours since I discovered the ants, I've felt like I had ants walking all over me. I keep telling myself, "It's not really ants, it's just your normal itchiness."

And then I found one crawling up my arm.

Aaaaah!
