Mosquitoes? Mosquit-OWES

I am finally back at my lovely hotel in Key Biscayne tonight and what a rough day it has been. Even though it seemed like EVERYTHING was going wrong, I was enjoying the fact that it was super sunny, blue skies all around me and a day of possibilities. Earlier I was waiting on a cab to head to the airport for client arrivals and all of a sudden positivity turned into panic. I looked down after a few minutes resting my feet and my legs had spots on them! I blinked and looked again and realized I hadn't contracted a strange Southern Florida disease, I was in fact COVERED in mosquitoes. SO then I naturally did what any sane person would do - I started slapping myself and hopping around the outdoor furniture as bell men ran to my rescue. I was acting as if I was engulfed in flames!

This made me begin to really think about these pesky little bugs. They are so small, but they cause such pain and irritation. NO matter how much you do to prevent their attack, bug spray, candles, pants - somehow they find there way to your flesh. This also made me think about how all day long I had minor issues to troubleshoot, and they also were all small and irritating. These issues were like the mosquitoes of life. Small, insignificant things that just cause more pain than they are worth. Over the past few years I have developed somewhat of a tough skin. Almost to the point that I thought it was impossible to penetrate by intruders. Unfortunately I was wrong, and the bugs got me again. My mother always said bugs bite me because I am so sweet. Hopefully clients will believe that too.
