love this.
I have been inflicted with a number of diseases, plagues and other acts of god that make me the equivalent of a 21st century Job. Rodents, bed bugs, cholera, diseases of the skin, salmonella, west nile virus, and of course, warts. And that's just the beginning of the list. Why am I so damn 1600's? I know the developing world is hip right now, but really - cholera?
This blog is for those of you who have that morbid curiosity. You know who you are. You like the creepy crawly feeling you get when someone talking about infestations, bed bug bites, and the like. If you don't like that feeling, you might want to stop reading now.
Also, this blog is highly educational. I have become schooled in the lingo of extermination; I know how bed bugs lull their victims with their two-pronged anesthesiatic bites; I have been successfully killing the warts on my feet with my own treatment in my bathroom, using Spanish fly juice bought from Canada. All of these medieval plagues are tough to beat, and neither doctors nor exterminators have foolproof solutions. You might find here, in your search to rid yourself of your Shakespearean health problems, an answer. Welcome, lepers. Enjoy.
