Random tidbits:

-Percoset doesn't help the paresthesia pain. It just makes me itchy and loopy.
-Very soft bamboo clothes do help. These clothes also happen to be indecent for wearing to work. Not sure how that's gonna work tomorrow
-Besides the groundhog, mosquitoes have also taken over my garden. I got 8 bites in about 2 minutes yesterday and an additional bite today after gearing up in my (not quite) impenetrable mosquito gear. The last trick up my sleeve is my mosquito head net which will make me look absolutely ridiculous in my suburban back yard (especially considering the knee high muck boots, pants and a long sleeve army shirt).
-Salted chocolate is awesome and helps distract me from the mosquito/paresthesia induced skin crawly feeling!

Have you tried the Keys Soap bug repellent? It is listed under the pets section of the web site (you can buy it at the pet store owned by Roots). It is called Redicare. I'd advise you buy it in the 8 ounce container if at all possible. Natural Healing Spray and Insect Repellant - 8ounces (236 ml)

With Neem and Karanja Oil, Lemongrass, Peppermint and Red Thyme Essential Oil

For Itching, Skin Allergies, Burns, Rashes and Skin Disorders
