which one of these is not like the other?


One of these things is not like the others,
One of these things just doesn't belong,
Can you tell which thing is not like the others
By the time I finish my song?

Do you remember that from Sesame Street? They would sing that song and then show kids a few things that seemed mostly similar but had at least one main difference...

For the last 8 hours that is how I have felt about my eyes. I have two eyes... mostly similar... it's just that, somehow, pollen has completely attacked and taken over one of my eyes while leaving the other to be completely normal. One of these things (my eyes) is not like the other.

I am working this weekend with the retreat groups that are here at camp. Do you think they will look at me with sheer terror and disgust? I wonder... In the mean time, I just need to figure out a better plan than over the counter allergy meds! geesh!

my eye got infected from my sinuses draining into it. The doctor gave me teramycin or something like that.

My recomendation...change the filter in your AC & stay inside!

My consolation...your "not like the other" could look like mine!

I had an eye like that!!! I tried to stay outside once at WBC with a bunch of guys playing a board game..when I left it was dark and my face was blown up like a beach ball. It didn't go back to normal for 2 days!!!!
