Which is worse:
to have a mosquito wake you by buzzing in your ear, which is totally annoying…
or
to stay asleep for another 30 minutes and wake up with like 5 mosquito bites???
I don’t know.
This really happened, as you might guess.
Which Is WORSE?

I’ll vote for the second one. Perhaps I can avoid the bites by getting up and moving about. Of course there are no guarantees. I have yet to be able to out run a skeeter…

Hmmm. I’d say the bites are worse. Longer-term irritation.

30 minutes of sleep are worth a few itchy spots. I vote let it bite while I’m out.

Plus the anticipation of the bite is worse than the bite itself.

It’s like getting a piercing. Or a shot. The anticipation is so much more stressful than the actual punch-and-done.

That’s probably true of a piercing (I wouldn’t know) and maybe have a shot (shots don’t bother me).
But mosquito bites suck! They just suck!
I wouldn’t have any concern about the anticipation of the bite if the bite didn’t suck!

Shave the bite (with a razor. Really) and then put Neosporin on it. All fixed.
If that doesn’t do it, shave it again and run the hottest water you can stand over it for 5 minutes until it quits burning. All done.

First one is worse! Because at least for the second one you are well rested to deal with the mosquito bites. haha
P.S. Somehow I never get bitten by mosquitos during the night so I may be biased.

They love me too! 😦 So I vote for the first option. Also I heard that if they buzz they are male and it’s only the females that bite, so buzzers are better than biters! 😀

I don’t know about the buzzing, but I have heard that it’s only the females that bite. I never checked to see if that’s true though
