Well, there is a first for everything and about 30 minutes ago I made my first call ever to the US Poison Control Center.

Why, you might ask, did I call poison control?

Because, due to an amazingly poorly timed sneeze, I just sprayed Afrin nasal spray in my eye. You heard me. I sprayed NASAL spray in my EYE.

Sometimes I am astounded that I am still alive.

(For the record, my eye feels pretty ok after 10 minutes of flushing with warm water. I mean, it doesn't feel great, but I don't think any eye would after being open in water for 10 minutes. Also for the record the folks at poison control are very nice and don't laugh at you even if you've done something completely ridiculous.)

*Update - Just woke up. Not blind.

Current Mood: okay
