Kind of a Gross Story... 

...about my body. And it's true!

Around last Friday my left eye started to feel sore, specifically my upper eyelid. It kinda felt bruised, like someone had punched it. Well, on Saturday my eyelid had started to swell quite a bit. It looked pretty bad to me, but Carrie said it was only noticeable if you knew what you were looking for (and I think all day long Mike was the only one who noticed it... at least he was the only one who mentioned anything). I bought some eyedrops with which I regularly flushed my eye, hoping that would help.

Sunday morning, though, the thing had swollen up to enormous size. I had a huge, puffy eyelid. The swelling had smoothed out all of the wrinkles so it kinda looked like I had one Asian eye and one Caucasian eye. Except for the Asian eyelid was enormous.

After breakfast I was poking at my puffy eyelid and examining it. I flipped it up and there was a rather large white bump on the inside of the eyelid, almost as if there were a big, whitehead pimple on the inside of my eyelid. My wife helpfully suggested that it might do good to pop it, so I went back into the bathroom and tried to figure out how to squeeze a pimple on the inside of my eyelid.

So I was prodding and squishing things around quite a bit, when all of a sudden it burst and a massive stream of white pus, water, and a tiny amount of blood cascaded all over my eyeball. The whole mess eventually pooled in the tear duct in the inside corner of my eye, where I had the dubious duty of using toilet paper to mop it up.

Fortunately that seemed to do the trick, because over the course of the rest of the day the swelling decreased dramatically, so that today (Monday) you'd never know anything had ever been amiss.
