Sleeeeeep

It is 2.42am. I am sprawled on my living room floor, window and balcony doors flung wide open (albeit with the shutters half-closed in case of mozzies), with minimal clothing and iced water.

Twin trickles of sweat are running down my face right now. I am using my Not Nice Blanket to lean on as I type this, for I would otherwise sweat all over my nice new Ikea stuff.

Can't sleep; mozzies will eat me. Or I'll sweat to death, whichevs.

I have decided: autumn is my favourite season here. It is crisp and golden and I buy endless varieties of mushrooms from La Boqueria market to serve on crunchy toast during relaxed Sunday mornings, whilst the beautiful sunlight illuminates the rooms with quiet, clear contentment.

Summer is rowdy and I dunt appreciate it and I am just so not getting to sleep tonight. I can't wait to go to England. RAIN COME BACK!

(Seriously, if it rains, I am going to go and dance in the street. I have done so before. Ahem.)

Mozzies? You mean skeeters? Mosquitoes?

They're horrible here this year. My legs have been itch itch scratch scratch till they're bloody. I no longer venture outside unless I'm doused in OFF! or wearing long pants.

You poor thing. I've been there....skeeters eat me alive because I am chunky and full of blood. Its really hot here and nights can be brutal, I am anticipating autumn as well, but I think we might get a long Indian summer, probably well in October.

Well, when your guests go, you can sleep naked! Something to look forward to.

Better not be any mozzies in Octobre. That's all I'm saying.

Have you tried this product? No nasty spray, no nasty chemicals, supposedly all natural plant-based essential oils just a clip-on wrist band or ankle band (in assorted colours) by the look of it -

Para'Kito
