Computer ban!

I have an eye infection, and right after the doctor had looked at it and said 'oh my god' (high on my list of things you never want your doctor to say) and prescribed eye drops, rest and sunglasses, he said the following:

No computer
No reading
No tv

Doesn't he realise that's all I do?

See you in a day or so...

Oh, no! This will be for a day or two? Do get well soon, McK.

Get better soon . . .

The horror, the horror!

Obviously, this is why he said, "Oh my God."

Get well soon--or, since you won't see this until you're better, happy recovery and welcome back!

There's nothing for it but to hold out your hands in front of you like a praying mantis and creep round the house for a few days like a bug-eyed monster, going chitta-chitta-chitta.

Hope it improves soon. And they don't screen Hunkz In Trunkz II while you're out of action.

Oh Yikes! Poor you. Feel better soon. I don't suppose you can read this though...

In case you disobey the doctor just long enough to see all our good wishes:

GET WELL SOON

I do hope you feel better soon. I don't know how I'd manage with pc, books or tv.

Oh no! What a terrible prescription! I hope you are better soon...

Oh no! Liz just had conjunctivitis,
and it was a bad deal- several days to heal up. Hope you're well soon.

"There's nothing for it but to hold out your hands in front of you like a praying mantis and creep round the house for a few days like a bug-eyed monster, going chitta-chitta-chitta."

Sounds cool! Will this work for other maladies as well?

(Heck, I may do it just for something new to do.)

How horrid! You have just described a horrible migraine but without the pain. It's bo-ring.

Sarah Laurenson said...

Um, what else is there to do?

Hope you're better by the time you read this and back to TV, books and, of course, the computer. But I suppose you would be if you're reading this. Is this like a time travel paradox?

Thanks guys! Have to do some work today, eye infection or not, so thought I'd just check a few blogs... But will not be back properly for a couple of days. See you then!

WHAT IF WE TYPE REALLY BIG? CAN YOU READ THIS?

Are you on tobradex? Keep it in the fridge if you are - that helps with the sting.

I need to get lens implants but am avoiding it - squinting through my decreasingly effective glasses.

Hope you get better soon.
