PINK EYE AT A GLANCE

Well, this morning I woke up with the familiar symptoms of conjunctivitis, otherwise know as "pink eye". Let me explain in literal terms what pink eye physically feels like.

First of all, it's as though someone wearing a beautiful pair of Jimmy Choo heels with a wickedly pointy toe kicked you square in the eyeball. Close second is the graham cracker crust you have around your lashes. Third is the vampire-esque way you loathe the light. And finally, fourth, your once beautifully white eyeball is now a georgeous party-pink color.

Bright side: Pink eye sounds pretty and feminine. It could be worse. I could be blogging about "brown eye" which I'm sure wouldn't be nearly as fun to hear about.
