I think something bit me last night. I remember rubbing my eye in my sleep because it was itchy and when I woke up for work I noticed I could only open my eye so far. I went to the bathroom to take a look and it's swollen nearly shut. It takes effort to keep it open, effort that is leading to a headache, so I won't bother. It's still itchy and it's watering a little too. The sucky part is that I'm up at 3 for an early morning shift starting at 4, so I can't keep resting. The worst part is that I can't even call in sick because I'm the one with a key to let everyone else in who also start are 4am. If the other keyholder happens to be working today I'll be heading home to sleep some more and then head to clinic. If I have to stay, the good news is that the clinic is only down the hall and I'll be off work just as it opens so I won't have to wait too long.
This is really not fun.

to get bit is one thing, but on your eye is a whole other issue. That is miserable, I hope they are able to get the swelling down and you are able to leave work to get some sleep
