Update: And the Diagnosis Is....

....upper respiratory infection and conjunctivitis (pink eye)!

Ok, that is so NOT what I asked for for my birthday.  >:-(

I am now the proud owner of an azithromycin 5 day "Z Pack" and a bottle of Neomycin eye drops.
    
I am notoriously bad at putting in eye drops, so I predict only half the bottle will end up in my eyes, the other half will be on my face, shirt, and sink.

Well on the bright side I do have some presents here on the table waiting to be opened later when DH gets home, and we were supposed to go out for dinner, but I look a fright (besides one of my eyes being pink and swollen half shut, I didn't bother with any eye makeup which I normally wear 24/7 because it would all smear off from the tearing of my eye AND now all my eye makeup has to go in the garbage anyway since it's now "contaminated"), so maybe we'll just do takeout.  I have a craving for spaghetti bolognese.  And pie.
 
I already informed DH that there is to be absolutely NO mention of weight watcher "points" tonight! :-D

The end.

    That's just not fair!

    Happy birthday, regardless.

I read each and every comment, and though I don't always get a chance to respond, I enjoy reading (and pondering) what you have to say. Thanks for your 2 cents! :-)
