The last ten days or so have been…trying. It’s been a blur of doctor’s visits and trips to the pharmacy, and I’m going to spare you all of the boring details except to say, the highlight was scratching/tearing my cornea. Whee! The experience itself was painful and horrible, but a gallant eye doctor, who’d never met me, agreed to see me on a Saturday (because, after all, he was having his hair cut across the street,and it would really be no bother) and then gave me his home phone number, just in case. That was such a warm, fuzzy, small-town feeling, people, I half expected to see Atticus Finch ambling down the street. You know, out of my good eye.
Thankfully, epithelial eye tissue heals pretty rapidly and I didn’t have to miss the Unofficial Company Outing Sunday afternoon on the Redneck Riviera (that’s what Mike J so sensitively called our party boat excursion, and I suppose if you take into account the keg and number of white bread products on board our vessel, it’s a pretty fair description). I did have to wear a ridiculously big floppy hat and stay out of the sun for the most part, but damn if I didn’t eat grilled hot dogs and barbecue potato chips like a rock star. A Redneck Riviera rockstar.
Awwww, so cute. lol
Very lucky for you too!
You look fabulous!
Glad you’re feeling decent and had a good time.
Gotta love those chips! Yum!
It looks like you had a wonderful day for your trip – eye problems aside!
Glad to see a happy Fish photo!
Heather– I know you don’t know me, but I thought of you this weekend when I saw a trailer for a new movie starring our lovely Elliott Stabler as a P.E. teacher. The movie looked silly, but it also looks like he’ll be wearing spandex bike shorts the whole movie. Thought you’d want to put it on your “must-see” lists……
oh man, glad you are okay and all healed up. love that hat!
You look so pretty and classy! You are DEFINITELY a hat person. I hope your eye gets better!
Owwww! I feel for ya girl. Blew my own eye out after too many sake bombs once…it HURTS!
Glad you were able to get it taken care of quickly and positively. Nothing like a small town kindness to hold the cynicism at bay for a moment (at least for me).
You look adorable in that hat! Not too many people can pull off those big, floppy hats!!!
You look smashing dahling.
I love redneck riviera but not corneal abrasions!
You are, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the ONLY woman alive who could wear that hat and look DAMN good doing it.
I suspect you could even wear a “cheese head” hat and look fetching in it.
The blue bars of your Redneck Riviera boat never looked so good without you by their side!
A scratched cornea on vacation scored me thirty Vicodin once upon a time…
I don’t like this picture.
Were you on Texoma? People poop in that Fish!!!
I am tempted to use the picture on my BlackBerry screen! But will not….
