Whoops. Yes, a towel would be a good idea, wouldn't it? *g* I remember using a towel with the ice pack when I sprained my ankle, so I don't know why I forgot when it came to the mosquito bite. Well, actually, I'm guessing it had something to do with it being 2:00 in the morning...

I can understand how you forgot about the frozen peas if you were engrossed in your book. It's easy to do that when you've got a really good read.
