LOL. Ticks give me serious heebie-jeebies, like a sesame-sized spider that burrows into your flesh. Soo gross!!

And, M. was chasing me around with the prongs of a scalding fork held under the flame of his lighter. Ticks gnawing into my flesh be damned, I'll probably have a permanent scar there now from M.'s shenanigans.

(I forgot to mention the doctor visit was due to a rash forming beneath the tick bite the next day…of course, that could also be due to HAVING A FREAKING HOLE BURNED INTO MY ARM!)

Okay, first of all, bad husband (*shaking finger*) – naughty, bad hubby, lol.

Secondly, I am sorry you can never visit me here near Houston, TX. There are trees and occasional ticks. And we just pull them off and take a shower if we ever meet. I hate ticks, but I think that you and hubby may have overreacted just a tiny, itty, bitty bit. ;-)

If there was ever a reason for giving up smoking, I think I would bring this up. I mean, from my pov, if he didn't have cigarettes, I doubt he would have burned you with anything else…I can't picture him running after you with a burning twig for example…

Seriously though, I am glad you are okay. :-)
