The Pink Eye

I got me a case of the pink eye... otherwise known as conjunctivitis.

I look like this:





Looking at things hurts. Especially things like computer screens, which is why this will be a short post. Even though I can touch type, so I don't necessarily have to look at the screen.

So I'm not at work today. I shouldn't have worked yesterday... 8 hours looking at a screen did nothing to help the redness and swelling.

However I'm pissed off because it hurts to go out in the sunlight, it hurts to read and it hurts to watch TV, so all I can do is get my paperwork sorted for my tax return.

I'll be back when the pink is gone.






* That photo isn't really of my eye. My eye is brown. And my lashes are longer and darker.
