Today, I realized that the "pimples" on my back weren't pimples at all. Because I was unable to see how bad they were for the last week, I never caught on to the fact the they were, in fact, ticks. FML

Today, I picked my dog up and nibbled her ear. On the tip of her ear was a large tick, which burst, sending blood into my mouth. FML

Today, I found a bug in my bra. Not a huge deal, so I flicked him out. Turns out he was a black blister beetle. I woke to at 3 a.m. to insane pain, as well as the water blisters all over my boobs. FML

Today, I went to the Doctor's for a mole my husband had said was, "growing and changing color". It turned out to be a wood tick. My husband knew, but said it was too "icky" to take off himself. FML

My sister did that when we were little. It was a "dog raisin". We thought she busted her lip from all the blood. I think she ate a caterpillar too. lol

Do you mean a dog tick? Deer ticks are flat, hard, usually brown and spotted with red or white. Dog ticks are the darker ones that get round and fat. Although dog ticks are more gray when full. Not sure how either could be confused with a jellybean. I guess you eat gray squishy jellybeans.

i was going to say the same thing. even full of blood they look tannish/greyish and there is a light purple color howing thru its skin but i cant see them being confused with anything. they are quite unique.
