My first Baitcon

[bridgetminerva.livejournal.com]

I thought I would share some of my impressions:

1) Local Auto is very honest and very helpful. didn't over charge the woman from another state.

2) Folic acid taken 2 days before and during baitcon worked. I am usually sweet meat to skeeters. On Friday nihgt I deeted 1/2 my body. No bits. On Saturday night I deeted only my head. No bits. YMMV. But I'd rather take a vitamin that is good for me then chemicals that aren't nice to my skin. I stil breakout horribly with suncreen or bug stuff.

3) Being adventerous with sampling flavors gave me a couple of new flavors to love: Spicy brains & cucumber sorbet.
(also a few to loathe: onion, and circus peanut. I never tried the chicken liver)

4) Alyssa is growing up wonderfully. Boudicca and Adira are very helpful. Gabriel is going to make a great dad someday. these kids wre so helpful to me by keeping an eye on Aileen when she shot out of sight. (it seems Aileen stole the Energizer bunny and ate it while I wasn't looking. she just kept going, ang going.....).

Thank you JB & K and everyone involved.
