I thought my friggin' eye was melting. When i got to the bathroom to rinse it out, I couldn't see my eye the blob was so big. Shit! It took a bit of rinsing but now my damn eye is sore. I thought I was going to have to call Matt to come get me and take me to a hospital.
I got the room half primed today. Ran out of primer and the blob in the eye put a stifle on things for awhile. I'll wait till Matt can pick up more primer for me, I don't feel like gallivanting all over now. I hate painting.
Get eye protection for G-d's sake. When you reach our age, healing is no longer taken for granted. It takes much longer.
Last year I was using my table saw, and not wearing my shop glasses and a chip hit the cornea of my right eye. It wouldn't come out, and the next day I had to go to the opthamologist, and have it removed, where it has migrated inside my eyelid. It took me months for the damned thing to heal, because I also have dry eye syndrome. Your eyes are the most important part of your body to protect.
You shouldn't be painting, sawing, or other things that can cause an object to strike your cornea. Geeze..............................
