bed bugs

reddish, flat-bodied pests have encroached our property. bed bugs! i cringe at the sight of them swiftly running for cover.

these parasites, which are very common in this country, have invaded our privacy these past few nights... putting us in their mercy, giving us sleepless nights, leaving us turning and tossing on our beds perpetually scratching our bodies like pets suffering from lice... which made me ask my roomie: which is better, a bed bug or a mosquito?

both bite. the former is like an unwanted guest, an enemy you don't want to see again but suddenly presents itself one day at your house, decides to stay for as long as it likes, creates a ruckus, leaves everyone in panic until the mortal inhabitants decide to call pest control. the latter is more like a stranger you meet on the street, just dropping by to say "hi" and "hello," then flies off to another land.

so, which of the two is the lesser evil?

good night, then. don't let the bed bugs bite. ;-)
