How do you spell 'embarrassment'?!?

When you arrive on board, and the person you are replacing has yet to leave, you are left with the conundrum of where your cabin will be. In this case, I have been given a Guest Cabin ~ nice outside cabin with a big window. It is great ~ except for my pets. It would seem I have migrated from the Koy to some other 'creatures' that seem to like to snack on me in the evening. So yes, I am now covered with bites.

With this discovery the first step is to let Housekeeping know ~ they spray the room and bugs be gone. I also managed to tell the Assistant Housekeeper while I was in the mess getting Tea. Well action was quick and before I knew it, everyone had descended on the cabin to 'investigate'. Something I hadn't considered when I left the room. So you can imagine my horror when I realized that people were going to be checking everything out, with my underwear on the bed beside and even better, some 'unspeakable personal objects' were in the room...

I head back to my room after what I feel would be a sufficient amount of time for people to evacuate and therefore I don't need to face, only to be told after I go in to pick up a couple things, not to enter the room ~ it has been sprayed and needs to remain closed for 1hr. So I survey the room, determine maybe my embarrassment isn't as bad as it could be and move on.

Next stop, medical facility to stop the itch. With this maneuver, I think I have now officially pissed off the medical staff. After arriving and discretely telling them my problem so the other guests can't hear, I am told that I need to come between crew hours ~ in otherwords, after 4pm. Yes, I get to itch all day. So after being told I could maybe see the doctor, I go ask him if he can take a quick look, he tells me the form needs to be completed by the head of the department ~ wait a minute, that is me ~ and tells me he won't see me until crew hours. I mutter something about this being absolutely ridiculous as he is sitting in his office doing nothing at the moment, tear up the form in front of him and walk off in a huff... Yep that's right, I sure know how to 'Win Friends and Influence People' she says as she itches her way back to the Computer Room... =)
