Fear me Bacteria! or Does anyone know where I can get a cheap plastic bubble?

"Healthy yet?" you may ask.

Fuck no. My body keeps coming up with new and creative ways to betray me. Last night I awoke at 4:00am and had an uncomfortable feeling that something was in my eye. Now when I say "something" I don't mean something like an eyelash or dust. I mean something like a cactus or Montana.

I got out of bed and took out my contact lenses (I wear 30 day extended wear so it's pretty normal for me to sleep in lenses). Usually an irritated eye feels better as soon as the lense pops out. Not so much last night. I still felt like I had a chili cook-off going on in my eye. I tried to get back so sleep, but the pain was persistent so mostly I rolled around and annoyed my wife.

So today I go to the eyedoctor who gave me antibiotic eyedrops and told me vaguely that my eye was irritated. Thanks, doc! So now I have antibiotic pills AND eyedrops. Bacteria Beware!

Really, I just want to be healthy. My eye still feels like like there's a litter of hedgehogs in it, and this makes it a bit difficult to concentrate. Hopefully, this will be the last health-related post I make in quite some time.
