Joe and I have a date planned for tonight. The third date we've had since Cheech was born. The third date in ALMOST ONE WHOLE YEAR. Pretty big deal, right? We made a reservation at a place that isn't too far from home, I bought a new dress, and I almost even committed to new shoes. So when I woke up this morning with what has been confirmed as PINK EYE by Dr. Milkmaid, well, you can only imagine how pissy I started to feel. I've calmed down a bit and realized that despite all the nasty goop in my eye, we'll still have a good time. Isn't that right, UNIVERSE?

Oh no. I am sorry you have pink eye and on your date night. :( I hope you feel better soon and have a great date anyways.
ReplyDeleteI am embarassed to say that we have not had ONE date night in the last 10 months. We always take the baby along. Lame. Well, we did have dinner reservations last week but our sitter (the in-laws) cancelled on us at the last minute. I am still bitter.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, have a great night, conjunctivitis be damned!
It took us almost 14 months, and then we only went out for, like, 2 hours. We were back a half hour after bedtime.
DeleteIn Short: Don't feel bad.
Sometimes the excitement of doing something new/different stresses out your body and results in...gooey eyes :(
ReplyDeleteI hope you still had fun! I have been out with wonky eye before (What I liked to refer to my eye watering up/gooping in the corners) and managed to have fun/make it work with the help of many tissue dabs haha
HOW WAS YOUR DATE??
ReplyDeleteugh, i'm sorry! i had a wicked case of pink eye a few years ago on my birthday. it was so bad, we had to skip dinner and forfeit seats to an off-broadway play i was dying to see. instead, we ordered pizza and C (husband) was dipping washcloths in hot water to place on my eyes. it was actually really sweet. hopefully, yours is mild and will clear up in a few days. hope date night was great.
ReplyDeleteI was all, WTF is pinkeye?! But, since I googled it and found out that you mean CONFJUNCTIVITIS, you have my full sympathy. Sucks.
ReplyDeleteARE YOU FEELING BETTER.
