And Because My Life...
... needed to be even more obnoxious and fucked up... I am now sitting here with gauze taped over my right eye because I managed to scratch it with a sheaf of construction paper. YAY.

Fortunately, the doctor says it should be okay by tomorrow morning, so at least this is temporary.

My ribs, however, may not be happy for another two to four weeks. Argh. (ETA: But they're probably not broken--he thinks the bits that hold my ribs to my sternum are sprained. I also got a lot of disapproving looks from nurses for not seeing a doctor sooner. Heh.)

Also, my left eye is my bad eye in general, so I can't see very well.

*whines more*

Oh, OUCH! And also sympathy from someone who somehow managed to score a direct hit into her own left eyeball with an elastic band yesterday, whilst removing said band from some fresh asparagus. Your sounds much nastier but I feel I can probably relate to the "OMG my eye! my EYE!" panic bit.

Sorry to hear about the ribs, too - hope they heal soon.

Yeah, I'm paranoid about eyedrops and stuff too, so having to put them in all the time is Not Cool.

Hey! ::mock glares::

Are you trying to enter the My body's falling apart faster than your body contest?

If yes, I can send you the official ballot.

But, really, I'm just going ouch-ouch-ouch-ouch (is that enough) on your behalf. Because, right now, you wouldn't even qualify to BE Pirate Bob. It's a good thing that you didn't break a rib. Even if it wasn't a sprained rib, it could also be a pulled muscle. ::sends you super-strong virtual pain killers::

Try to take it easy. Pretend your life is booooring.

No hugs - just Hollywoodish air kisses,
H.

It sounds it. I hope it gets better from here on out! And that the good interesting overtakes the bad!
