Brooklyn stigmata
Here's something I've never done before: I got a mosquito bite in the center of the sole of each of my feet. At first, because they itched, I thought it might be athlete's foot--which I had never had before. But, no, they were mosquito bites. And I can't believe those were easy places to pierce and suck blood from. I know there are easier places because plenty of other mosquitoes found them. I looked like a teenager in the morning--I mean the pimples, not the perpetually haggard look I have developed over the years. Oh, I suppose I should mention that my cheap Brooklyn sublet does not have screens on the windows and it has been really hot lately.
