Weird thing is, I don't ususally feel it if a real bug is on me. The other day, a fire ant got me - didn't feel him crawling on me or biting, but that stung for a while after. Then I had the creepie crawlies all night, ugh.

This thread is making me itch.
Speaking of BUGS.... You know I had to deal with the "lice" issue at work. Parents bringing in kids when school starts, when the first wave of new cases appear commonly.

Well, one night when I was doing midnights in the summer, 2 adults came in, the gal dressed in a sun dress and the older gentleman in a Hawaiian shirt mostly unbuttoned and shorts. It was about 2am or so. So she asked me what we had for lice. And I said, where is the problem?, and she pointed to his chest, and when I looked CAREFULLY...his chest hair was MOVING! I am TELLING you I was itching/hyper all night from then on. I cleaned and cleaned the counters, doors, the MONEY even. Talk about the power of suggestion....I was a mess for the rest of the night
