- Damn tick. I think I
killed it
with unclean or unpotable (not intended
as) BOOZE. No lodging of head in wound,
though!No burn other than
sting, no itch so far.
I'm starting to thinkmaybe Lyme Disease explains some
Of my present symptoms,
though. TOUGH. I got tick-bit! As a lil' kid, I remember
dad drawing a "magic circle" (magic MARKER circle: don't
get all het up in the retreaded sci-fiinfantsasty! No such THING
as magichas ever been, save alchemy
{originally} and prestidigitation
in any universe!) around the big,itchy,
spreading
welt.
This was a full decade or
more before Lyme Disease made the news, but
it'd be just my Jersey Luck to get bit on the selfsame asswho stood up dressed
EXACTLY as he was about to suggest
in college Public Speaking 101: For Dummies!That'd be back in oh...ninety? Ninety one?
Seventy? Fifty-four forty or FIGHT? I mean,
come on me I was serious with that speech!I just didn't want to walk in with a lot of props,
or make a joke out of showing them all off in
sequence so I walked in like that, very basically.Then-People said "it was fun to pay attention to," but
that
it was supposed to be strict
quick in-and-out action: a hot hard
fresh act of speech! Right there, infront of us all! I went,
*dayum* like 90 seconds
over and over, getting a huge
wet "F" from the student assistantlecturer for fucking up so
easy.I sure
enough learned her
NOT to give me so hard an F!Grade-wise though, she was like, OH
OH, OH OK OK YOU CAN GO FOR
IT, but strictly as "bonus credit"!We laughed at our little
joke and walked off in separate
times, by disparate roads until(tragically, as always),
she died
Not of Lyme Disease
