Nitty~Gritty

random thoughts about my life

Yesterday, I thought I was going crazy.  Let me tell you why.  There’s a constant statement in our house, usually by me, “Don’t over water the plants.”  Ok, so it’s not a statement but a demand made in fear of killing my plants.  Anyway, yesterday as I sat on the couch minding my own business, I could have sworn two teeny tiny gnats flew past my face.  Swatting them away didn’t help, as they appeared to be buzzing in my ear.  This caused me to get off my ass and head into the kitchen to tackle some dishes but I was “attacked” there as well.  Now it was starting to get on my nerves so I was mad.  Mad because you can barely see them, leading to tricks on the brain.  I called cute hubby and asked if he had encountered any killer gnats and he denied it.  Hum, I’ll just try to ignore it then.  Well, it was then that my scalp started to itch like crazy.  Slowly, I started feeling them crawl all over my body and invade every orifice.  I was itching everywhere.  Then I wondered if I had some itching disease because I was itching everywhere.  Maybe my multivitamin was causing some weird side effect, leading to raw nerve syndrome.  I don’t think this is a real syndrome but if it was, I had it.  When cute hubby got home, I informed him we were under attack but he ignored my cries for help.  Because he wasn’t experiencing the same pain, I was sure it was in my head.  I couldn’t stand it so I suggested we get in our bed, read and then he could kiss me goodnight. I thought sleeping it off would be the cure to my raw nerve syndrome.  I woke up only to see him working on the computer next to a lamp, the only light source, swarming with gnats.  This is when the apology took place and he swore not to over water the plants again.
