Developed a conjunctival haemorrhage yesterday.
It didn’t hurt at all, but I got a lot of sympathy from people who thought I’d been injured in some spectacular way.
Today, however, it’s a different story.
The blood has spread around a bit and now it’s looking suspiciously like pink-eye. All the sympathy I got yesterday has disappeared, and everyone is now looking at me with disgust, and standing well clear of me in case I suddenly fling germs in their direction. Nice.
It’s going to add a certain je ne sais quoi to my appearance for the leavers ball tomorrow night.
