Quasimodo Called, and He Wants His Face Back
Well, goodness. Guess what I did on Saturday? That’s right! Hurt my eye so badly, I cannot see out of it, nor stand the pain for one more minute. Seriously. this is bad. It’s now completely closed, puffed up and purple like Mike Tyson gave it all he had, and feels like a tiny electrified squirrel is frantically foraging for nuts within my pupil. Bastard squirrel!I was playing with my son, and during his laughing fit, he accidentally poked his whole hand into my eye. Unfortunately, I think it went straight to my brain. I saw stars, I felt the universe close up around me, heard nothing but the silence of space, and then I think I passed out for a few seconds.
I haven’t slept a wink since (heh). Tried everything from bathing my eye with saline solution to applying cold compresses, and really, I see no relief unless I take a sterilized spoon and dig my fucking eyeball out of its socket.
Well, that’ll teach me not to nibble on my boy’s pizza dough-like thighs, tempting as they may be.
Anyway, I’ll probably not be posting for the next couple of days. If you don’t hear from me within the next week, then you’ll know I’m swinging from a bell tower somewhere in France. Au revoir!

Take care of yourself. Doctor perhaps?
OUCH!!! Sorry, Ms. Lori. Hope you are feeling better soon.
A mother was boxing her son,
Whose had his small hand set on stun
He hit her poor eye
So she thought she might die
And then raising his hands, said I WON!
Sorry Lori..couldn't resist. HOpe you're feeling better...
D
Geesh! That sounds painful! Take care of yourself...I don't know what I will do if you don't write for a few days! Feel better soon Cuppie. XXOOE
ow!!! That sounds horrific. Poor you. I hope you feel better soon. xo Katie
Owwwww.... :( I really hope your eye feels better!
Not to laugh at your pain but "...feels like a tiny electrified squirrel is frantically foraging for nuts within my pupil. Bastard squirrel!" forced me to laugh for five full minutes without pausing!
I hope you get better quick!
Oh my gosh - Ms. Lori feel better soon. xxxx
chubby boy thighs are tepting to bite. I will keep in mind the "lesson of Ms. Lori" next time I feel the urge.
Hope your eye gets better soon, Quasi.
Oohhh, I hate it when that happens! I hope you are better!
Oooch! I got hit by a basket ball in eye once (see my post about my Apple-computer-like brain run by a guy called Ned) and by golly did it bloody hurt. You have my complete sympathy.
My only advise for you however is to whip yourself up to A &E and see if they can provide you with any killer pain relief.
That or some pot.
Pot would be good.
It'd still hurt like hell.
But see, then you wouldn't care.
Hugs.

PS: If I ever meet that Bastard squirrel I'll beat the crap out of it for you. How's that?
Aw, Julie did that to her dad when she was 4 years old and he ended up at Wills Eye Hospital's emergency room with a scratched cornea...he even had to wear an eye patch which made Julie scream every time she saw him cos' she was convinced she turned him into a pirate and there was no convincing her otherwise. Then she kept checking his hands to make sure they didn't turn into hooks.
Feel better, Ms. Lori! Sorry I won't be in Rochester tonight, damn it. Maybe next time 'round.
xo
Thanks, everyone, for your kind concern. I'm feeling MUCH better, though my eye is still a bit swollen and blurry. But MUCH better, oh hell yeah.
What a nightmare.
Robin, hope you can make it to Rochester another time. Ah, fate...
