dry eyes #.#

[dragonlady7]

I have spent two days now squinting and unintentionally winking. My eyes are just so damn dry. I don't know what to do. I used some eyedrops yesterday but it only helped for about two minutes.

I'm sort of enjoying taking really stupid customer service calls today, because I can do those with my eyes shut.

Badump-ching! Except I was serious, you don't need eyes to talk. You do need eyes, however, to write notes or assemble new-dealer-info packets or research AHAM's bogus CADR standard. (Anyone care to phone me up and explain that to me? I'm totally stumped by it.)

Guh. #.# Squinty.

This is totally not related to your subject, but I figured you were the best to ask...I want to make a bunch of pots of soup/stew to freeze and eat for lunches at work. Do you have any recipes?

Tons.
to start with, last week's issue of Artvoice.

more to follow when my eyes work. you'd be amazed how much websrufing you can do with your eyes closed.

do you use contacts?

[dragonlady7.livejournal.com]

I own them, but seldom wear them because they make my eyes so dry.
Not this dry, though. This was the worst thing I've ever felt for such a long period of time.

I don't understand.
I thought Ben Stein was an actor. What would I do with him? Does he make some kind of product? I really don't get it.

[heebiejeebie.livejournal.com]

Do you remember that commercial for visene he used to do, where he would talk abou "dry, ithcy eyes? You need to moistur-eyes." then he would say "WOW" all deadpan

Man, I am really bad at getting TV references. I was only allowed an hour a day as a kid, and once I got to college I didn't have one and had to just watch whatever was on in the common room, and then after college I had one but it broke, so I haven't actually watched television in about five or six years. So I miss out on these things.

I did see the game show with Ben Stein in it. He was pretty funny. I do know who he is, which is better than I am with most celebrities...

My dad only knows one actor. He knows who John Wayne is because the bastard stole his parking spot in 1967. That's the only actor he knows. I think I must be my father's daughter.
