It's 2.5 years since my anaplas experience.  Picked up the tick while hunting on Veterans' Day (clever little monster hid in the short hairs) and 10 days later I was totally miserable - wife thought it was a stroke.  Diagnosis on 11/22, doxy Rx 23rd, felt much better 24th but finished the 10-day regimen.

You are lucky it wasn't worse. When I had it they told me about a woman in rural Maine who contracted it. They gave her antibiotics and she didn't take them. Killed her.

A long-time (30+ years) co-worker - staff biologist - got Lyme twice.  First time he thought it was his worst flu ever but waited a couple days for a long-scheduled wellness appt.  Nice bullseye rash on scapula made for quick diagnosis.  He had a 3rd doxy Rx immediately upon finding an engorged tick - didn't wait for symptoms.

After witnessing all that, following the medical advice was an easy decision.

This spring sucks. May never take the hour to install 3 ACs.

Clearly the coldest spring on record in Nashua!

Oh wait, if the month ended today, it would be 11th warmest [of 157 years] in nearby Concord.

And 5th warmest out of a shortened 67-year hit-or-miss POR at Manchester. 1998's average is missing the entire month of March and tossed.

You seem so much happier, looser 

That ass sweat loosens it up… but 83/48 and I’m loosest.

Snow crying for its mama.  The bugs are just starting to get going as green up is through 2,000ft now.  Another 3-5 days and it’ll probably be time to get carried away by black flies.

Today I did think of Scooter and the clouds jokes in NNE… hit about 12pm and clouded up with the humidity and terrain.  Then brief downpours.
