Why do mosquitoes buzz in people's ears again?


When I was in elementary school I read a book titled "Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears." I don't remember why at all but I am real close to Googling the story so I can find out. The past few weeks I have been awoken and bothered by the sound of a mosquito buzzing in my ear. The pitch that the buzzing is at makes the buzz quite alarming and annoying. I try to swat it away and hid under the covers, only to find a fresh new bite on myself the next morning.

My poor roommate has it even worse. Just the other night he was awoken out of his sleep and was so annoyed that he made the effort to come down stairs to light a mosquito repellent. He even said he rested in the living room for 5 minutes just to get a moment of peace.

As for me, I think I am only being attacked by one ( but who knows). If it is one, he is quite resilient. I have tried spraying him, smashing him and swatting him and in the middle of the night he reminds me how worthy of a competitor he is. This little bugger used to be a lot smaller so if it is the same one then he is getting fat off my blood. This morning I was actually really offended by the fact that he was using and abusing me every night, as if he were a person or something. I mean, this flying bully is bold. He actually rests on the wall right near my bed...yes, right where I can see him and I still can't get him...then he waits for me to turn off the light and that is when he attacks.

Well this morning I saw him chillin' on my wall (probably sneering at me) so I went and got the big guns, heavy duty bug spray. Even though the spray exiled me from my room for 3 hours he disappeared and I m hoping he fell to his death or something. Ha ha ha. Who is the winner now!!
