So, I’m in the basement, watching _Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust_ on the DVD, & I start scratching an itch on my neck.

Then, I notice that my hand is covered in blood! :eek: :eek: :eek:

And the wound is on…my neck. :eek: :eek: :eek:

I have no idea why…

Quick, stab yourself with a wooden spoon before you turn to the dark side! :wally

(Ok, serious mode time: might you have an infestation of bloodsucking insects? Mosquitos, ticks, fleas, the like?)

Just in case you feel a tad hungry, I just ate 4 slices of garlic toast, and I _do_ own a sharpened wooden stake.

Just come over to my tom…er…_house_ for a quick bite.
