Note: I am aware that this looks God awful in IE. Do yourself a favor and get you some Firefox before you get lost in the big scary world out there.

Surpreyes, surpreyes
No, there was not much improvement with my eyes today, but thanks for asking. My eyes look healthy and fine to her; my only instructions are to stop using Clear Eyes and instead use a morning drop and a moistening drop, and hopefully they will stop appearing so disgusting. As for my headaches, she suspects they may be reading related. I now own reading glasses from CVS, which means I am now old. This was funny and heartening this morning, because I've got no problem lubricating my eyes and wearing specs to read, but at exactly three o'clock this afternoon, I was just plain mad. I had not read a single word all day, we had just been looking at dresses in the bridal boutique, and it happened like a truck accident. I've taken Tylenol and removed my contacts and put in my eye drops and the only other solution is going to sleep now.
Sleep is the only response my body has to these daily headaches, and sleep is the only thing I can't do right now. I've only got a few weeks left, which means it's time to get back to work. I wrote a paper last night, and I've got another tonight, plus 130 pages of Evelina, plus some extra readings. I am not going to get any of that done this weekend. The headaches are officially interfering with my regular activities, because as soon as one hits my whole body feels fatigued and shuts down. I am always short of breath. I am really, really tired and impatient and I want to cry.
