Freaky eyes

Thursday sucked.  And here's why:

I had cried a lot on Wednesday due to the fact that my kitty cat has gone missing (and no, he's not home yet ).  And when I cry, my eyes freak out and swell up.

 

This is not only freaky to look at, but it's nearly impossible to really see things clearly.  There's so much extra weight in my eyelids from the water that it makes my eyes feel bizarro, and everything's pretty blurry for awhile.  It take a few hours for gravity to take effect and allow me to venture out in public.  What's weird about this when it happens is that my right eyelid actually raises due to the amount of water that's trapped in there.

I had a lot of things planned for that day..I was going to do newborn photos in the morning, but had to cancel because I couldn't focus my eyes, or really drive, for that matter.  Thankfully we were able to reschedule.  It probably all worked out for the best anyway, as I stayed home and did my 24-hr urine for my clinical trial that started at Mayo the next day.
