Suprise, Suprise!
So, I got a nasty suprise upon taking my shower this morning:
I had a tick on me. Below my right underarm area. I didn't know at first what it was, so pulled it off...and found it had left a hole that is roughly the diameter of a pencil eraser.
Ick/Ow/Blech/sigh.
I have the tick still, in a baggie. I looked it up, and it does resemble a deer tick/black-legged tick - so I'm planning a doctor visit for tomorrow, right after work. I'd thought about going this afternoon to Urgent Care, but I really don't think this is THAT urgent. I hope I'm right.
Don't worry, while I DID take pics for the record, they're not in this entry. ;)
