Well, luckily my room has been spared from the plague…so far. But all the other living quarters in our building are infested with fleas. Where are the bug bombs when you need them??? Actually, I don’t even know if those work for fleas. Maybe a doggie collar would’ve been more prudent to pack than mosquito spray… Here in the central highlands we’re basically out of the malaria zone and my DEET spray spends its days sitting pretty in the corner. Note to self for next time.
Anyway, I don’t even know how we got onto this flea discussion over dinner, maybe it stemmed from watching a line of ants marching toward the main entrée on our dinner table, or swatting flies off our plates throughout the duration of the meal. Whatever the case, Gil and Ben informed me they have fleas in their room; Gil was even kind enough to show me the bites on her arms and legs. O…M…G.
Fortunately for me, all the furniture in my room is new (they think the fleas got on stuff in the storage warehouse, but my furniture was ordered just for me and came brand new from Tana :D ) and I live on a separate floor from them…although that provides me with minimal solace as I’m sure my room will be infested within the week. Until then, I will keep myself busy lighting fires in my room, or maybe I’ll just use the DEET spray and pray that works. :D
