Ow, quit it!

I scratched my eye this morning. The cornea heals pretty fast, so usually when this happens (when it is dry or something gets in it), I just go back to sleep for a couple of hours and it feels better (although tender). I called in with the proviso that I might be back this afternoon. Anyway, 800mg of ibuprofen and four more hours of sleep later I couldn’t keep my eyes shut any longer, but it still hurts to the point that I have a headache.

I might go watch tv with a black sock for an eye patch. Maybe that will also fix my lazy eye.

   That happened to me once, when I was in high school (on the 4th of July, no less). I had to wear an eye patch for two days, but it wasn’t a bad-ass black one. They gave me a flesh-colored, tape-on patch. I looked like I belonged in special ed.
