It crawled across the keyboard
after crawling off the dog –
a sure sign of Spring
to make us sick: a tick.
Peace (creepy crawling).

This makes my skin crawl! Also brings back memories of my Mom removing a tick from behind my ear, burning the tick, and then flushing! Hope those darn ticks stay away from your pup!
Yikes!!!
Ewww! I’m glad you saw it on the keyboard and NOT on your arm! As always, you are a master of the concise, Kevin.
Oh no! The dreaded tick! And it seems like each year there’s more than ever before. Will they ever just go away!
Eww! You nailed the whole ethos of a tick by being…quick.
🙂
I remember those days… those creepy crawlers that once were the worst bugs. How the world changes… Take care, friend and hello to your furry friend. 🙂
Yikes! That is a scary sign of spring!
