The tick I found Saturday on my leg tested positive for Lyme’s disease.

I’m being put on a 21 day cycle of some medication I cannot even pronounce, much less spell. Some nasty side effects come a long with it, including sensitivity to the sun.

In retrospect, I actually feel very fortunate. Had I not found the tick on my leg, the consequences could have potentially been much worse… obviously. So I actually count myself as lucky.
