Doppelgänger

Apr 12, 2007 13:24

So I was woken today by a phone call from a dear friend of mine informing me that she was currently driving in front of what she thought to be my doppelgänger. Knowing that these are bad omens, I must wonder how long this little bitch has been feigning me.

Allow me to elaborate.

Sometime late last week - Around 7pm
I am sitting with my friend enjoying the final rites of Silent Hill 3 when I receive a text message from an unknown number. I ask who is contacting me to discover that it is a hated individual from my past who has done me considerable harm and asks me for a favor. A quarrel ensues.

Wednesday, April 11 - 6:17am
I wake with my eyes irritated, as if there is something in both of them, but think nothing of it.

7am
About 2 minutes from my place of hire, I get into an accident which is entirely my fault. I am not only made late to work but I inflict more damage upon my already shitty car. However, I proceed to have a good day.

About 4-6pm
My eyes are becoming worse and worse. Never having experienced a visual infection before, I didn't know what to expect. After speaking with my boyfriend, he suggested pinkeye.

I retire to my home, get a bite to eat, listen to the Yankees game and then proceed to fall asleep.

Thursday, April 12
Wake with sleep in my eyes. Lots.

I go to the doctors to verify that I do, in fact, have pinkeye and must not return to work until Monday. Which may seem like a blessing but when paired with the knowledge that I was just in a wreck that I will have to pay for (insurance or not), I need those two days of work. Also to pay for the extra doctors visit (I had been earlier this week to refill my Adderall) and the medicine.

Damn doppelgänger.
