I am sick. *sadface* It's just a normal viral headcold, but it manifested in a really bizarre way. Last night I woke up at 4 AM and blurrily realized that my eyes hurt so much that I pretty much couldn't open them, but having them closed felt like they were on fire. It was... unpleasant. I stumbled through my apartment, squinting and getting some water and basically completely overwhelmed by OW OW OW OW. I tried to look online for something to help me but I essentially could not look at the screen for more than a second, so I woke up my poor Michelle, scaring the crap out of her. Sorry love :( She helped me by reading some stuff on conjunctivitis. I put warm compresses on my eyes, which turned out to be exactly the recommended treatment, and it helped a little, but I was still in so much pain. She looked at my eyes briefly and said they were SCARLET. Meep. I dictated two emails to her to my professors that I had class with in the morning. I still couldn't go to sleep though so I had her turn on the Buffy episode Tabula Rasa for me to listen to. It's a weird experience to listen to TV, and I was kind of half delirious, but it was pretty funny too.

When I woke up this morning, my eyes felt better but still pretty scratchy. I gave myself an extra hour of sleep and skipped my Cinema class (sorry Prof Moss :( ) but forced myself out of bed for Analytical Chem lecture and lab. I went to our health center and the doctor said I have a viral infection that likes to migrate to the eyes and that I was the fourth person to come in with that complaint. Awesome. This probably means my roommates will get it. Oops :( I had an awful sinus headache all through lab, then I got home and collapsed into bed and slept for three hours.

So that was my day!

Now it's 1:30 and I'm pretty damn perky, though getting a little sleepier. I took some decongestants, advil, and visine, and I feel quite a lot better. No headache right now, yay! Me and the roomies watched more WEST WING, which we refer to as "crack" because it's so fucking addicting (Michelle comes out of her room for a break from paper writing and says to me, "Crack?" And says I, "Josh!" and so we sit down and watch another episode. Or two.) and I would like to flail some. We have finished season 1 and watched the first 3 episodes of season 2, so behind the cut thar be spoilers! DON'T read if you plan on watching the show some time.

The West Wing, aka I LOVE JOSH LYMAN )

Now I need icons! Or at least one, of JOSH. <33333
