    I've been whining and crying like a little bitch about winter, begging for spring / summer... It's 'sort of' here (everything is blooming but it's still in the 40's / 50's F). On top of that I just ripped a deer tick out of my belly... little fucker left his sticker in there... my wife has already got the prescription for doxycycline on it's way. :/

    • My wife JUST got "ticked" on the weekend; lolz.

      What a time to be alive, eh!?

    • You miss the Phoenix hellish sun, isn't it?OBBTKN
    • Usually if you get it out fast enough you won't have to worry about anything. Did the pink ring already start to form? M or Female tick?canoe
    • I'm somewhat ignorant about ticks other than I know by it's size it was a deer tick—small pink ring has formed but it's not too bad—and yes I miss Phoenix. <3PonyBoy
    • As a former denizen of the dirty south, I'll just put some tick facts into the void:garbage
    • Do not rip them off in a panic. They've already got you, and you need to use precision tweezers. They'll be there when you get home.garbage
    • There's an old school method of lighting a match, blowing it out and putting it on the tick. Never, ever do that.garbage
    • The tick will release out of pain, but it will also vomit inside you or whatever dog you're trying to help.garbage
    • And um.. stay Lyme Ponyboy.garbage
    • Dealt with a tick bite/lyme about 11 years ago. Caught it JUST in time, but those tiny little shits can cause BIG damage.stoplying
