Wahhh! Dilation.
August 17, 2006
I had my eyes dilated this morning. I kicked myself for not having my camera. As such, you are subject to my drawings today:
(Also, I apparently have very bushy man-brows, no neck, a crooked jaw and unruly, airy hair. I also have bald eyes, a nose that disappears into my face, and a perpetually open mouth. This doesn't do much for my self-esteem. And, gaahhh: the eyebrows. Have you ever seen such a thing?)
Three hours ago, they told me my eyes would return to normal in one hour. Obviously, they lied. I know this because I just looked in the mirror to inspect my pupils. They are very big and very dark and very uneven and floating around inside my head.

I HATE getting my eyes dilated!!!! It never seems to go back to normal like they say it will until much later and usually it's like the sunniest day ever and I need to run errands so I'm in pain the whole time. Hopefully they will get better before you leave work! :)

Aaaaaaiiiieeee! That huge eyeball scared me half to death.
I liked getting my pupils dialated when I was younger. I have pale green eyes and the enlarged pupil made them look dark from a distance. Now I hate it. It hurts.

Why would you need to get your eyes dilated?

Awww, I know that hurts! Did you get the cool wrap-around disposable sunglasses too?
Your Google ads think you need a hair transplant, 100% Human Hair false eyebrows (WTF??!!), and permanent eyeliner and lip color. HA! So judgemental, that Google.

I! happened to think your unruly, airy hair was quite fun. And, unruly. And, airy. :)
Hope your eyes de-fog soon. :)
