I got dumped. I got pink eye. I got a bloody nose. It was twenty six degrees.

Awesome right?...I'm sure you are all jealous.

But honestly, I'm fine. I mean yes, getting dumped by the first boy that you have actually liked, not just cause they're hot and popular, but because they make you laugh, that hurts. Its embarrassing and humiliating and it makes me cry, but that is nothing new! Yes, I will probably miss him and it will take me some time to adjust. Yes, I think it's weird that he still texts me every day. Yes, it kind of breaks my heart. But just a little bit.

A couple hours after the dumpage, mild tears, a couple prayers, and finally sleep, I wake up at four in the morning to a searing pain in my eye. Take out the contacts figuring they just irritated my eye with the crying and the tear wiping. Wake up in the morning, pink eye. Now that is going to make me feel awesome. I got dumped and now I have an oozing infection that means I can't wear make up or contacts. I ditched my last two classes and came home. My real home, not this hotel in the freezing cold in cedar, that is not home.

My family makes me feel better. They let me eat ice cream and tell me that it will be fine. I get an appointment with the eye doctor who gives me drops and says I will be good as new in a couple days. I trust him. Partly because he went to like ninety years of school. Party because he looks and acts exactly like Pilot Jake from the Bachelorette. Party because I really hope he is right. Three days later, I'm still wearing glasses but my eye no longer burns with searing pain. Three days later I made a playlist of I'm over it songs for my i-pod...and I jammed on my way back to Cedar. I might not be good as new, but I am definitely good. Maybe I'm a new kind of good that doesn't need a high school boy. Maybe someone will think I am the hottest glasses wearing girl in the world. Probably not, but reguardless, I'm good! So mom, no need to worry! Emily, please don't buy me anything, food substance or otherwise, I can't be the fat, glasses wearing, eye oozing, dumped girl that would just be sad. Kristi, thank you for the conference post, i agree with all your thoughts and now don't feel like I need to blog my own! Kassie, I expect a really funny and uplifting comment to this blog update, maybe even two! That covers all of my blog lookers so anyone else that finds this on the internet, don't show it to Eric Carter, that is just embarassing.
