First of all,...I have an eye infection. And it sucks. I scratched my eye somehow and the damn thing got infected. To make matters worse, my Gran gave me some antibiotic drops...I put some in my eye and went to sleep. IMAGINE my utter horror to wake up several hours later and my eye is like, damn near swollen shut!! OMG! I have to go to work! And I work with my current "interest" (this is not "Jeremy", this is someone entirely different)! How embarrassing to have to show my face like this!! I will DIE of embarassment today I'm sure of it. (I hate feeling ugly.) So, because it actually has the left side of my face feeling sore, I decide it's no longer something I can just "suck up" and decide to go to the ER. This IS my vision we're talking about... So I get there,...get a room,...and shortly thereafter the doc comes in to assess my situation. I tell him of the drops and show him what they were as I brought the container with me. he's like, "Ok, they're not my favorite but they are an antibiotic..." He leaves, and just a short while later comes back to notify me that in the system, I am listed as having an allergy to sulfa drugs (this is true). He then proceeds to tell me that the drops I put in my eye prior to going to sleep,...yeah. They are a sulfa drug. AAARRRRGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!! Are you kidding me?! So I'm making my already embarrassing situation worse?!
LOL Figures. So, he prescribes me some eye drops that will NOT swell my eye shut (good grief) and sends me on my merry little way. I put the prescribed amount of those suckers in my eye just AS SOON as I got to my car. The swelling went down considerably but the redness and some discomfort are still lingering.
I work with a bunch of men. As a matter of fact, I am the only female that works here at night. I do not like to NOT look at least presentable. Tonight I am sans make-up, hair in a ponytail, and looking a slight bit more rough than I usually do. Screw it. Whatever. lol What a "mis-adventure"! hehe
Nice.... just nice.
