Sunday Night (March 7, 2004), I was hanging out at my friend Steph's house... the usual - watching TV, talking, writing angry e-mails, y'know... what we do every time we're hanging out (well, everything but that last bit). She has a two cats and I normally play with and pet them. I used to be severely allergic to cats, just being around them would make my eyes water and begin to swell, and my nose would run like a faucet. As I grew up, I grew out of it to an extent... I could pet them, just as long as I didn't rub my eyes with my hands afterwards, and I had no problem being around them... but sometimes I get absent minded and do something stupid. SO while I was writing an e-mail, my eyes began to water and itch a little bit. I figured it was probably my allergies and just suffered through it. When I got home I looked in the mirror and realized that it may be more than allergies when my entire right eye was blood red. Taking my contact out was a bit scary as the fear of a detached retina came screaming through my head. I went to sleep that night and woke up with my eye glued shut from eye-boogers (or eye crispies). My eye watered a bit when I woke up and they disolved enough for me to open my eye and clear off the rest from my lashes. I went to the eye doctor (after donning my old glasses) to see what was up.
