Shame on me!
I feel so stupid and embarrassed for wishing that I had sore eyes so that I would have a valid reason to not go to work for a couple of days. I taunted the universe for such sickness to ail me, but my wishes were ignored. Instead, I was bestowed with a semi-monster headache that kept me in bed the whole day yesterday. (On hindsight, I've been having intermittent mini-headaches for almost two weeks now.) Which I think is better than that icky eye affliction. At least I still got to stay home and get that much needed rest--away from the computer to boot.
I'm no longer wishing for the pink eye. (It was really moronic of me to have done so in the first place.) Now I'm just wishing that I could find a better way to deal with the stressors that plague me at work.
