THE BED BUGS ARE GONE

Rate: 9 Flag

This post will be short. For the time being the Bed Bug Guy came and inspected thoroughly and it looks as though the itching and scratching could be a normal psychosomatic reaction to my experience, and the black flecks on my bed are pieces of lint and dust from my socks. I sleep encased these days with tights and socks and a long shirt.

Stop sleeping in my socks! They pick up shit from all over the floor! says Eliot, The Bug Man. 

In the meantime, I found out some useful information and scared myself silly. I prepared to lose everything left that I own and I faced total extinction of stuff. 

THIS IS A TEST. DO NOT ADJUST YOUR SCREEN.

Maybe I am "crazy" as the apartment manager said ("Bennie") when he came to my place at 8 a.m. this morning and yelled at the top of his lungs about what a lunatic I am. You could hear him on the next block. I've become the quintessential Jewish cockamamie meshuganeh! Well, he can kish mir en toches (kiss my backside!) Originally I DID actually have bed bugs and it was NOT my imagination. Thank God I pounced on this early. My son scared me silly with New York Bed Bug horror stories.

THIS TRIAL IS DONE. I AM WAITING FOR THE NEXT TRIAL. 

Meanwhile, I'll have some coffee and meditate.

I'm glad they're gone and hope they stay gone. Don't worry about believing they were still there. From what I understand many people experience this phenomenon after having to deal with these little buggers.
Good to hear it PoLS!
YEAH, and I'm sure a relief. Be well my Friend, older/exasperated
Good news! I hope you're free of them now.
Yeah I'm glad too but I gotta say--this happened on a Retrograde Mercury and my experience, after 30+ years of astrological study, that many, if not most things that occur on a retrograde mercury end up getting repeated again! I sure as hell hope that doesn't mean this. I will remain CAUTIOUSLY optimistic. The worst part was this morning at 8 am when the apartment manager came in and abusively YELLED at me at the top of his lungs for nearly 5 minutes because I mentioned calling the Inspectors! What's he trying to hide? And where does he get off abusing me with this kind of inappropriate behavior? I am not sure what to do about this because I am at his mercy as a tenant--I just know him screaming at me in my own place when I am 4 inches away from him was totally inexcusable and out of place. Any suggestions?
Yeah!!!! you quintessential Jewish cockamamie meshuganeh!
I suggest a flaming bag of poop on his doorstep.
I sure hope they're gone. Good luck to you! Hope this new year is better to you.
