Day 28: Thunder Rolls

It makes no sense how much thunder and lightning there was outside last night. We were under a Tornado watch until 8:00am this morning. I know all of this is irrelevant but it's relevant to me because the crackling of the sky woke me up last night. I didn't open my eyes though. I could SEE the lightning through my eye lid. It was just that bright. haha, but I couldn't see through the eye patch. So what did I do? I rolled over so that the uncovered eye was in the pillow. hahaaa clever me. I must have been very tired because the lightning, thunder, rain, and car alarms did not keep me awake too long. UNTIL IT TRIED TO BEAT MY WINDOW IN not much later.

So yeah, I'm taking to my coworker today and in the middle of the conversation he says, "your face is looking better". I'm like yeah, thanks. I have to look in the mirror to see it/remind myself. I had a thought today though, like how much have I really progressed? I was dyyyying laughing at something today and my entire left side was soaked with tears. My right side, nothing. I mean not one drop formed as I laughed. I guess those tear ducts haven't come back to life yet.

Oh yeah, I finally made that doctor appointment for my ear. ONLY because my ear has been aching all day. And not constantly but sporadic pains, throbs that last only a few seconds. I can't figure out what it is but I'm going to find out. I went to the pharmacy today with the suggestions of (1)banging my head against the wall really hard (2) olive oil (3) sweet oil) and (4) ear drops. He suggested Ibuprofen for the inflammation. he mentioned ear drops but said get the Ibuprofen until I go to the doctor. I wonder though. How does a doctor determine that one has an ear or sinus infection? Like just looking in my ear or nose they can say, "Yes, that's it?!" I'm just wondering.

Tonight I played beach volleyball. I was hopeful no sand got into my eye and I was successful! Tomorrow.... is Thursday, lol!
