pink eye! stink eye!



so as i was at work today, i brushed away some crusties off of my right eye thinking it was nothing. later my eye start to hurt. it felt really sore like someone punched it or like i had my eyes open for a really long time without blinking, so i decided to check it out in the mirror. red veins started to infultrate my pupil. i thought to myself "Hm... thats weird, I wonder if this is what pink eye feels like." A few minutes later a little bit of puss came out. Yuck. I had Jamie look at my eye and ask her if this was normal or if it was pink eye. She said, "OH GIRL! You need to go! Call someone. Yuck." or something like that... So 3 hours later, I was headed home... or to the doctors. 

50 stupid dollars and a stupid doctors visit later, it was confirmed. i have pink eye... conjunctivitis. of course the doctor was trying to convince me it could've been because of my contacts, and i needed to clarify if my eyes were sore or irritated and i had to defend myself that i take out my contacts every night. he was a jerk. but i didn't wipe the puss off of my eye for the past hour so he could see how nasty it was, especially if he was going to make me come in and prove it. 

so here i am. mom and i went to lunch, went on an adventure, got some ice cream and some greek food. i never knew pink eye could be so obnoxious and irritating. this is what i get for taking care of, feeding, and changing diapers of other peoples' kids. i do not like it.
