Some people believe that the Santa Winds originate from high pressure air masses over the Great Basin and Mojave Desert, butt we know better.
(Woe to the Mauser that lives downwind.)

Hey, don’t blame me. You feed me those beans.

Good question.
(Although if it makes more room for biscuits, I’m all for it.)

This me with my brother, Duncan…back before I became responsible.
*
What can I say? Little brothers grow on you.

Here is the stupid little b*st*rd that bit me. I sent it to the Northeast Wildlife DNA Laboratory to be tested for Lyme and other diseases. It turned out, this guy was clean. He didn’t carry a single illness.
Since my Western Blot test came back positive, that means a different tick bit me, unnoticed, and gave me a fresh dose of Lyme. What mystifies me is, I’ve seen engorged ticks on my pups. They are visibly noticeable even on a dog with shaggy fur. How can I possibly keep missing these things when they bite me?!
Out of curiosity I looked up whether it is possible to get Lyme another way, but it looks like no. A statistically significant number of people who get Lyme, though, never knew they were bitten.
The moral of my story is: ticks suck. No wait, the moral of my story is that even if you tuck your pants into your socks or have your ticks tested, you still might miss the one that “got” you.

Why don’t you get protection like I’ve got? Then you’ll be safe!

(As a funny side note, my blog is more popular in China than it is in the US. I wonder what they are learning by reading humble Bitey Dog?)

(Yup, these were the juiciest blueberries I’d ever encountered.)
*
I don’t care. I’ll eat it right out of the pan if you let me.
(Just call me “Blue Beard”!)

Ack!

Something has been eating the low-hanging tomatoes (unfortunately they’re all low-hanging tomatoes this year), and I suspect it’s Ack and his family. Murphy is upset because believes all tomatoes – low or high – are his.
*
Hey losers, don’t you realize this garden is for me?!
*
One good bit of news is that there have been reports of stray cats in the neighborhood. I heard a couple of them getting better acquainted several nights ago. A few cats out hunting can do wonders for keeping these critters in check.
*
*
*
Thank heavens we cats can hunt.

Murphy isn’t typically very interested in the garden, but as soon as those bees moved in, he kept wanting to go inside. I was happy when the bees were taken care of so I didn’t have to worry about my little guy getting hurt (and I could get to my sadly overgrown squash).
Normally I don’t like to hurt bees, but those guys were a**holes.
*
Can I go in the garden now? I hear there are squishy tomatoes inside!

I should have known something was wrong on Wednesday. Both mower batteries ran out right when I got near the garden. Then the string trimmer ran out of string. Did I take the hint and retire for the day? No, I re-threaded the trimmer, charged the batteries and powered on…into a nest of ground bees.
It didn’t take long before I was at Urgent Care getting prednisone and Benedryl injections. The photo is what the Benedryl shot did to me.

Now I am the latest, unhappy member of the Epi-Pen Club. I know I’m not the only one out there, but this is all very unfamiliar to me. I’ve had anaphylactic reactions before, but no one has taken me seriously when I talked about them. This time the doctors actually saw it, and I think their responses are freaking me out.
I picked up my pens at the pharmacy today, and I was surprised at how large they are. I’m trying to picture me carrying them everywhere I go. And then, where do you keep them so they are easy to get to? How do you know for sure when to use them? If anyone would like to share their experiences, I would be happy to learn.
For now the pens are still in their pharmacy bag sitting on my desk. I mean, if I ignore them, the problem will go away, right?
*
I’ll guard the door. No bees will get in here!

Murphy has been very attentive to me this week. I think he realizes I don’t feel well.
