Man I hate ticks. Dog used to get them and bring them home all the time in Nebraska. Thankfully dog ticks and I managed to always feel them before they bit me. Dried up ticks on the carpet after biting her and dying from Frontline.
Weird thing is I no longer have pets and live in Ohio. Have not been hiking or anyplace. I'm standing by my cubicle at work in a pink shirt and someone says - there's a spider on your sleeve, no no ITS A TICK
WTF - I have no idea where that came from which is one problem and people at work are looking at me a little strange
