Well, it seems the bedbugs have found their way to my livingroom couch. Last night, while feeling particularly unwell and trying to relax after work, I dozed off on the couch. I woke up scratching myself all over. No wonder why.
I count 4 bites on my left leg, 10 on my left arm, and a few others in random places.
This discovery made me want to cry. In fact, I did cry. Just when I thought the bites from the bedroom were dying down, it tunrs out that's only because they found a new place to infest. I finally get my life, my house, my couch back after my houseguest of 2 months leaves, and within days I'm being chowed by bugs.
I will call the super later and update him on the situation. Surely this means my days of sifting through plastic bags of clothes every morning won't be over any time soon.
But mostly, I'm nervous about my pending trip to see my family in Florida. How do I avoid bringing the bugs with me?? I'm seriously considering just showing up with nothing, and buying whatever clothes I need when I get there. It seems the safest, and I do not want to subject my family to this torture.
