I Am Healed!
This has been the worst case of Contacts Stupidity that I’ve ever had. After four days of misery and pain, my eyes are back to their old selves. If this hasn’t taught me a lesson, then nothing will. I’m guessing that the irritation lasted as long as it did because I wore my contacts for many hours the very next day after sleeping in them. Not my smartest move ever.
I’ve been confined to my house for 3 days and I am going stir crazy. I’m blaming this fact for my post yesterday about Ryan Reynolds’ abs. There really is no excuse for that other than I was suffering from cabin fever and lack of human contact. My apologies.
I have to be at work at 5:30 and I am frightened by the fact I am actually looking forward to it. I have also been counting down the hours until Sunday night, where I will be celebrating my recovered eyeballs and giving my kidneys something to cry about. Mostly I’m excited about being out in the world again without wanting to pull my eyes out and throw them. I’ll also be inviting a new firefighter friend out to join the festivities. I met him Sat. night and would like to see him again. Now that I can actually see anything.
Peace and healthy eyesight.

Congratulations! I’m glad you feel better. It’s perfectly normal to admire a perfect physique like Reynolds’. Good luck at work tonight, have fun Sunday, may new and exciting opportunities (and sights) present themselves.

I have always been afraid to try contacts. Your story just fills me with even more fear of ever touching my eyes. Thanks

Yay for healed eyeballs! I wear contacts every day — but every now and then I have days where my eyes are so irritated I can’t even open them so I have to sit around the house all day! : /
