The most unexpected thing happened.
I filed a one-hour-leave in the office to have my right eye checked out because it was irritating me to no end. I couldn’t concentrate on my work because my contact lenses kept moving and it was disorienting.
So there I was, having an eye examination, fully expecting to receive a prescription and a pat on the back as the doctor sent me back to work.
That’s when things changed.
Oh, the doctor prescribed my medication all right. What I didn’t expect was for him to say I had a case of sore eyes and that I had to rest and skip work for a few days. I wasn’t expecting that. At all.
The next thing I knew I was in the office filiing for a few days leave and sickness reimbursement. Went down to the clinic several times to have my doctor’s signature. I was moving in a sort of haze. I never knew I would be taking a forced vacation. I was feeling giddy the rest of the day.
And then I received a most heart-stopping text message on my cellphone.
But that’s for another post entirely. =) I’m a terrible tease. ^^
