Away from the wretched bed infested with bed bugs
still inside the apartment
Docklands, Melbourne
Australia
42.8° F (6° C)
It's little past 5 in the morning, but I can't sleep. I feel like I'm in living hell (actually dreamed it was hell). Not only is my so called shelter bombarded by street noise, it's infested with something that keeps me up at night. I tried flipping the mattress and witnessed something horrifying: the biohazard-ish stains covering both sizes of the mattress. I am not going to lie in that bed until the bed is safely sealed inside an allergen blocking mattress cover and I have washed ALL the sheets, at least, 3 times in excruciatingly hot water.
Perhaps it's the sleep depravation affecting my reasoning, but right now, for some reason, I'm thinking it might a good idea to start posting my photos before I get too old.... Don't ask. Perhaps it has something to do with "revel[ing] in my own imperfection and mediocrities" (me. from About Me, Blogger Profile... I'm quoting myself. This is why no one should blog at diminished mental capacity)
[updated 2007.06.20] the mattressed is now safely wrapped with protective cover that supposedly stops even the dustmites from penetrating.

Warning! If you sleep outside your bed, the bed bugs may infest other areas of your home (eg sofa, other beds, other rooms, etc.)

Thank you for the info. I am now more grossed out than ever before. It's a good thing the sofa is pleather. Otherwise, I already infected it. Yikes!!!
