I have skiter bites on my TOOCUS!


ROFL!  Been there...they bite through jeans here in Texas, too...the worst part about getting skeeter bites on one's, um, *lower* cheeks is that it's not considered polite to scratch them in public!  But down here, the worst are the chiggars...little mites that are in grass and too small to be seen, but they bite and generate the most gawdawful itching for about a week (body's allergic response to their saliva).  They like places where clothing is tight...ankles, behind knees, panty lines, bra lines, arm pits, you know, all those places one can't scratch in public.  ARGGH! 

Dawn in East Texas (starting to itch just thinking about them...)
