Arrrrrrr, if only it be Talk Like a Pirate Day, I'd be set!!

But I'm not as piratey right now. I found some old eye ointment and put that on my eye instead....not sure how well it will work since it probably expired years ago. :/

Better, actually. :o)

I woke up Monday morning and the swelling had gone down on its own.

Wow, is this one of the hazards of working in your lab? I have to admit, that's never happened as a result of my research. Although it may be unpleasant when I have to read moldy books, it's not quite the same thing. :( Hope your eye gets better soon! OK, back to work for me. Really, this is the last you're going to hear from me until I have at least written a few pages. ;D

Oh no! Its not a lab hazard. Stys are pretty common for people to get. They're usually caused my Staph, which are a normal inhabitant of the skin. I've gotten them before, long before I ever started working in the lab.

And I hope it gets better soon too. Its not too painful, just uncomfortable and very annoying.
