Well I found it pretty laugh out loud funny previewing it by myself.
I am not sure trying to explain about Cutey Honey Live Action can count as 'defending honor' but I am glad to help ;D
Well they were insinuatin' things I didn't want insinuated...
Wha?
I'm shocked, shocked that you'd think such things of me ;-)
(I told the people I'm driving that my car is a yaoi free zone)
Before anyone asks, as someone on staff told her mother, yaoi is 'Puppies, cudddly puppies'.
hehehe. That's great. Cuddly mind-scarring puppies.
The doc referred me to an eye doctor...the same one that I saw when I hit myself in the eye with the electric plug. I'll be going to see him whenever I get the referral date.
It is unlikely, however, that I will get to use the Restasis. My doctor said side effects are horrible and it's too risky.
Likely they will do a permanent but reversible procedure called punctal occlusion. Punctal plugs are small stoppers placed inside the tear ducts, the small holes that drain the eye. By plugging these drainage openings, the tears stay on the eye longer.
Well...that sounds like not much fun short term, but better than something you'll have to deal with long term.
Keep us posted!
HA!!
Now that's funny.
Actually, I have "crying" tears. The tears that I don't have are "every day" tears. Apparently, they are two different things and are made up of different stuff. There is more lubricants in the every day tears and I don't have much at all.
Well, if it works I won't ever have to use eye drops again. Which would be nice. The ointment I use at night (which is really just petroleum jelly and mineral oil that can go inside the eye) is annoying, because if I gotta get up in the night for any reason, it's like looking through...well...vaseline!
I just didn't think the plugs sounded very pleasant to have done! Kinda like bamboo under your fingernails.
Heh! That's right! Crying tears can actually wash out all the lubricants in your eyes, making them even drying than before.
Here's an interesting article...

Hm...interesting that flaxseed oil is one potential fix. It sounds like your case is way too severe for that simple of a cure, but it's good info just the same.
