The time has come the walrus said, to talk of many things... Of shoes and ships and sealing wax... Of cabbages and kings... Of why the sea is boiling hot and whether pigs have wings.... Growing up, I always wondered what ceiling wax was, picturing waxy balls filling in the cracks on the roof over my head... Anyway... I've been thinking, the time has come... The lovely month of February.
The halls are decked in reds and pinks and hearts and stars... Every email I get from open table to pro flowers to groupon has something to do with the dreaded valentines day. I'm reminded every day that I'm single and alone... I do not need one built up hallmark holiday to make it sink in any worse.
I've been filling my time with writing a case study on epidemic Keratoconjunctivitis. It's apparently really the time of year for reds and pinks, as every walk in eye is glazed over in some shade made for the holiday season. Three patients alone, this morning have come and gone... Rooms disinfected, and my hands washed close to a million times to make the. Match that red raw hue... Ironically, you could sayv EKC is the eye disease of love... It's passed so easily from eye to eye, from a hug, to a make out session... Families and loved ones pass it to each other as recklessly as a valentines day card.
Oh,Valentine's Day..I think back to last year... I woke up early in Key Largo, ran out to get coffee and muffins and came back to the hotel to find a Teddy bear in red scuba gear and a box of chocolates... I had no idea what to do... I wanted to eat the entire box that moment to dispose of the evidence... It was my first actual valentines day present and it completely freaked me out. We had breakfast, went scuba diving that morning, relaxed with a few beers on the porch that afternoon and went to a fancy restaurant for dinner... It was a perfect day,
well a perfect weekend... And I'm afraid it was my last hahaha
So, ive been writing a lot of prescriptions for Pred Forte with antibiotic ointment coverage... Fingers crossed I don't get the infection myself... But I might as well write a prescription for myself this season ' Happiness without worry 100% sig i/i QAM-QHS Every day'
Happy Valentines Day to my readers who are luckily all in relationships and without eye infections!<3
