Around a month ago, I had a bug bite on my right knee. It itched and I scratched it. The next day, I was alarmed to find it seemed slightly bigger. Went to the nurse, yada yada, got told it was cellulitis. Big welt on my leg and I panicked.
It may help you to understand why I call myself error. For one, my mental health is not necessarily in the right state to process things. I do this thing where I don't realize I'm actually awake and really am a human, call it muting sensations, and then all my senses come back at once and I go "Oh shit I'm in a body!" Then I proceed to lose all sense of rationality and become a screaming mess who will spasm as though I'm having a seizure and also likely kick you for getting too close.
Hence: Error-RealityFailed. So this time I was freaked out by having a welt. I can't handle my own organs, why would anyone thing I could handle what might be an infection in my leg. Mind you, this is the GOOD leg! The one that I actually did not hate. This was the one I did not try to cut off three years ago. (Don't worry, I didn't get too far with that)
We got some steroid cream for it and the welt went away a few days later...
The fucking mosquitos have it out for me. I was burying my poor fish (Not sure what happened with him, might have been age) who had passed away, and these little beasts came and decided to bite through my clothes and give me some very itchy blotchy bites. The next morning we were sure it was mosquitos that had caused the first one because there were now TWO welts on my leg!

By this time I was just pissed off that it happened again and didn't break down. My new goal in life is not to kill flies, but mosquitos. I rarely hit them with my hand, so I think flamethrowers would be a better method. Burning down the entire east coast is a small price to pay for the death of those little vampires.
