Deaf and Blind

Today started off horribly and little has gotten better. 

As I am rinsing the shampoo from my hair in the shower this morning, I get a boatload of water in my left ear.  No amount of head shaking nor number of q-tips helped to get it all out.  So now I can hardly hear on my left side.  I hope it gets better before Ridley's music class tonight.  I might sound like one of those American Idol contestants when they can't hear themselves on stage.

Then I somehow manage to get something in my left eye that refuses to go away.  Seriously, my left eye is completely bloodshot and irritated.  I can't see anything in there so I have no idea what to do.  I have tried rinsing it out to no avail.  It is REALLY annoying.

Thanks for listening to me whine.

  • Oh man, no bueno! A clogged ear is annoying in a very special way all its own! :(
  • Oh man, as hilarious as that all is from the outside, it sounds miserable to be in the situation yourself!

    When I have a clogged ear with water, the only way I can get it out is to jump up and down on the opposite foot.  Right ear clogged = hopping on left food with head tilted.  I suspect you've tried this, but in case you were sticking to one side, maybe that would help?

    Whenever I get something in my eye, I usually do enough rubbing and blinking and futzing that whatever was there probably is gone after 2 minutes, but then it's really pissed off from having my finger in it.  I usually cure this situation by putting my finger in it more.  You can see where this doesn't actully end up helping.  I recommend eye drops- anything that stings when you put it in, since that's how you know it's working.

    Sorry chicky- that all sucks.

  • Okay, that totally sucks. If it makes you feel any better, I have had all sorts of crappy day today-- the only way it could have been more ridiculous is if I had fallen over whilst putting on my pants this morning. Sounds like your day is just as ridiculous.

    I hope it gets better-- and don't eat any hard candy, or you could end up mute as well.  Embarrassed
