I've Got An Itch That Needs To Be Scratched

I just had a great long weekend, which was spent up at my friends Nory and Robin's cottage near Washago. It's a pretty nice cottage too, I must say. It's on the Black River (which actually kinda lives up to it's name... it's quite deep and dark). Anyway, I had a good time maxin' relaxin', and doing some catchup with folks I hadn't seen in a while, and with folks I had never met. I even got to see the outside of Casino Rama. I didn't go in though, as I didn't want to push my luck that I've been having the past week with regards to gambling.

But of course, all silver linings must have a cloud, and mine was the amount of mosquito bites I got over the course of the weekend. It seems they were having some sort of mosquito convention in town or something. I haven't been bitten this much (or at all for that matter) in years. So, I went today and picked up some Calamine Lotion. Now I have pink dots on my arms and legs. It's quite cool, I think I'll start a fashion trend.
