This morning I woke up and went straight to the mirror to pluck a few stray eyebrow hairs. Unfortunately for me, my fingers were slippery and the stupid tweezers slipped and smacked me in the eye ball. I couldn't open my eye for over an hour. Good news... I'm not blind. I went to the doctor and apparently sliced my cornea all the way across from top to bottom. As soon as she looked at it she said, " Oh WOW. That must have hurt." I don't like to hear that from the eye doctor. It was all good news except that I can't wear my contacts for a week. So I will either be wearing my stupid glasses from high school or one contact. I tried the one contact thing earlier and it really threw my balance off. I might just have to let my eyebrows grow in because I'm scared to touch them again.

WHAT ON EARTH. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? ARE YOU OK? All this has happened this morning - you have already been to the doc and back? As soon as I can I'll call you...I'm on a conference call right now.
Christina...I'm "Tagging" you.
You've been blogging for a long time, so maybe you've already done this. Just go to my blog to check out the rules... Have fun blogging!
And oh my!!! I hope your eye is okay and gets better soon. Now I'm scared to pluck my eyebrows!!
Okay that had to hurt. I can't stand an eyelash in my eye, I can't imagine a pair of tweezers! I hope your okay.
Yikes! Makes my eyes water thinking about it. I once caught a fingernail in the eye playing basketball in a swimming pool, scratched my cornea, so painful. Wax for you from now on!
OUCH! All I can say is I feel your pain. The week we got married Jake hit me in the eye end his nail did the asame thing...it was super painful. Good luck recovering! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
