What a bunch of embarrassing goofs...PLEASE...SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP!!!



From LymeNUT:




"Wasn't there a tick costume involved?? I hope that drew some MORE
ATTENTION to this renegade group!!!

That darn tick costume.It drew more attention-but not to ME. Sure I
know LymeMomTOO spent a lot of time making it herself,really creative
and it did look cool-and tick like-

but did you ever try to get noticed yourself when you're sitting next
to someone in a full body size lime green tick costume

and someone else wearing a stuffed green duck on their updoo hair (that
be Tincup). Never quite figured out how she got that darn duck to stay
in place.

I mean, I had monogrammed my own lime green shirt with this BIG tick
crawling out the pocket that said "LYME DISEASE IS A BIG PROBLEM "

I don't know-maybe it was the clear trash bag I was wearing over it to
stay dry.( I couldn't remember if I had used a permanent marker for my
artwork).

Every time a media person approached us-I thought AH HAAA-I have been
noticed !Someone wants to hear MY story. Then they would stick the mic
in TICK Lady's face for HER name because they had just taken HER
picture.

I think Tincup would have stuck out even if she didn't have that Duck
on her head. Anyway-there I sat. Invisible as far as I could tell.
Maybe it had something to do with the sign I was holding "Undertreated
Lyme Disease Disables"

Was I looking too disabled to speak ?, I asked myself. So I took off
the trash bag . Five minutes later it started to pour ! So I pulled out
my next "pick me! pick me !" prop- an umbrella with a carved wooden
duck on the handle.

Of course it didn't occur to me that in order to protect myself , and
my own clever tick crawling out of the pocket,from the rain I had to
cover up the duck with my hand to hold the umbrella upright.

Trust me, and this I know you will understand. I spent way too much
time trying to figure out how to hold this stupid umbrella upside down,
inverted, so the duck would still show, and I would still be protected
from the rain.

Finally I realized -it's not about ME. MomLymeToo morphs into a a giant
tick for her child's sake. Tincup wears that Duck on her head to focus
on the crippling aspect of Mistreatment. Tincup doesn't QUACK-but she
does say OUCH a lot.

So, in hind sight-I guess I learned a lot at this rally-just by being
there-sitting next to Godzilla Tick and Duck Head. I hope to follow in
their footsteps and come up with a bigger and better costume!!!!

"I'm not a complete idiot-some parts are missing"

(End).




Editorial comment:

Well, NOT a "duckhead"...really, but it DOES rhyme with "duckhead".
