It's That TIme of Year :(

Allergies. They come every year and affect many many people. I am one of those lucky people. This morning I woke up and could feel my eyes swelling. It's going to be another fun season of sneezing, coughing, runny noses, itchy and scratchy eyes. I don't know what I'm allergic to but it must be something common because I sometimes have my allergies from the beginning of spring to the end of fall. It sucks. And during the summer when I wake up with completely blood shot eyes even after I took an allergy pill, I still have to go into work. One morning I woke up and one of my eyes was completely blood shot, so I took my eye drops and put a couple in, but the redness didn't go away. So I put a couple more in a couple minutes later. Needless to say I went through this a couple more times and ended up putting 8 drops in my eyes within 15 minutes. And I didn't know that when you put drops in your eyes it dilates them. After 8 drops my pupil was so large that you couldn't see the color in my eye. This was about 2 hours before I had to go to work too. I went to my mom and she about passed out when I showed her because I hadn't told her that I put drops in my eyes, she just saw my eye. She went back in her room and had to lay down and called the doctor, and then I told her that I put that many drops in my eyes and she laughed :) lesson learned: don't put that many drops in your eyes.
