red eye effects...

-

this past week, people take one look at me and with all the sympathy, go, "what's wrong?"...
"nothing...!", i answer unconvincingly...

it's my red, puffy eyes... i look like i've been bawling my eyes out... it's a rare feat i've managed due to an odd coincidence of circumstances... i've been reading late into the night... nothing more serious than the dilbert book and John Grisham's 'The Firm', but even that is reading! and i have had to now swim without my swimming goggles... reason?? between J & I, we had one pair of them... actually, they belonged to her but since she wasn't going swimming, i had a good time getting used to them... and now that i have to swim bare-eyed, my eyes flare up in various shades and patterns of red...

"buy a pair, no!" she insists every time i rub my eyes until she's afraid i might gouge them right out...
"no... it's ok"... i'm still following the philosophy of "if it doesn't kill you, it makes you stronger..."....

well, it's not so bad... except the world seems a little blurry on occasions i can keep my eyes open... driving's a little harder... but given my driving, it's hardly noticeable... even if i'm driving blindfolded...

that's about it... i've to now go and sit with my eyes in cold water for an hour.... and see if my visibility improves...
