Heebie-Jeebies
Our lawn is conspiring against me. It has joined forces with THE ENEMY.
After walking across our yard--a yard that has until now seemed friendly to us--Jim found a wannabe-ninja tick on his shoe, no doubt trying to assassinate my poor defenseless husband. If its mission had been successful, I'm sure the heartless marauder would have come after me.
I will now be spending the rest of the summer safely inside my house. I am contemplating the addition of several clean rooms for persons entering the house where they will strip down to their skivvies and submit themselves to several body scans to make sure we as a household are not infiltrated by the shadowy murderous forces of Dermacentor variabilis.

I'm feeling a similar vibe after the delivery of a rat on our doorsteps from the cats. I'm sure I'll come down with the Plague at any moment.
