Pink Eye

[Pink eye](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_eye “Wikipedia: Conjunctivitis (pinkeye) – inflammation of the conjunctiva (the outermost layer of the eye and the inner surface of the eyelids)”) is making the rounds in our house. My youngest had it in March. The middle child was diagnosed with pink eye at the beginning of last week, and the oldest at the end of last week. Now, I have pink eye. My left eye is swollen, red, bloodshot, and secreting a large amount of [goop](http://www.answers.com/main/ntquery?s=goop&gwp=13 “Answers.com: A sticky wet viscous substance.”). It looks and feels disgusting. I think I’ll put a patch over my eye if I have to go out tomorrow. It also looks like it’s time to refill the eye drops that have a $35 copay. I’ll be glad when this is over.
