So my doctor (read: the internet) has diagnosed my puffy and sore eyelid as a stye, which, as I read on the site, is disgusting but not fatal. This morning I woke up and just knew I didn't really want to get up and start my eighty billion blinks of the day, but you know, a girl's gotta eat. And nurse her brand new stye! Woot! At least it's not anywhere near the troubles of this guy.
Anyway, I'm giving it a few days to sort it self out (using my 'doctor' recommended tips to help it along) before I get all medieval on it and see walk in doctor. Whee.
Also, Al, thanks for checking in on the sites! What are the chances of you hijacking Sylvia's blog and letting us kow how your trip is going? How's the weather? Having fun? Etc?
Alright! Today's errands will be fun because it looks like I got punched in the face...my eyelid is at least 3x its normal size and an unhappy red colour. But now I can just randomly say, 'but you should see the other guy"! Buh-doom ching!
Have a lovely day all!

m, in highschool i got a style and it felt like there was a little piece of glass on the inside of my eyelid, scratching my eye every time i blinked. it was awful. i would recommend seeing a doctor. they'll give you drops and you'll feel better.
or it could be pink eye...
I'm lucky because the stye is very much in/on my eyelid and not on my actual eyeball, so it's more sore than really painful (yuck about the glass analogy though, I would definitly see a doc toot sweet for that kind of pain). I feel sure it's a stye because its developing just as it's supposed to (it's basically a painful pimple in the eyelid, yay for TMI!) so hopefully it'll go in a few days. If it gets too painful or too weird looking we'll hit up the doctor, I promise.
Did you know that pink eye is a strain of herpes? I KNOW! Ugh. You feeling better these days yourself?
sure am. the drugs are helping, but early morning and late night is still ouchy. i'm not as worn out though which is nice.
yay going back to work!
