I'm not winking at you. Really, I'm not.

My left eye has been twitching.

For several weeks.

Twitch..............twitch.........twitch, twitch.................twitch.

It's driving me a little crazy.

Twitch, twitch.

So, I did what every hypochondriac normal person would do, and googled "eye twitch"

What I thought might be something serious resulting in me getting a nice long rest in the hospital is probably nothing serious at all.

twitch.....twitch....twitchy twitch.

Most of the websites I visited said basically the same thing. Eye twitching is most likely caused by stress, fatigue and lack of sleep. Three things that have been a big part of my life in the last few weeks.

Twitchity twitch.

Still, I don't think that my eye twitch has anything to do with my sleep deprivation. I'm pretty sure it was caused by this.


Seriously, this is DRIVING ME CRAZY!!!

PLEASE! MAKE IT STOP!!!!!

Hmmmm, I'm sure it means you have eye cancer or leprosy or something like that. You might want to get it checked out.

Oh I hate the eye twitch!! I google everything and I'm always certain that it is cancer!

Amber said...

Sounds like the answer for that problem is a luxury spa weekend full of naps, massages, other people cooking and cleaning up and a stack of movies to watch and books to read... and no one to bug you.

Have you read anything with lots of grammar errors lately? Because that makes MY eye twitch. :D

Maybe you should go to the doctor anyway....people seem to respect "doctor enforced rest" much more than "leave mama alone, she's tired" rest.

I hate that!!! It's SO annoying. So go out and get a few pints of haagen dazs. I read somewhere that it's an old norwegian remedy. I forget where I read that. But It MUST be true!

The eye twitch is definitely fatigue. I get it all the time when I'm overtired.

LisAway said...

Oh man, the irritation is getting me just READING about the twitch. I hate that. (the twitch. Not reading about it)

Here, come hold the baby. That will take care of anything that ails ya.
(and while you hold her, I can go take a nap..catch up on some of my sleep deprivation!)

Ahh...the dreaded eye twitch. I completely sympathize. I agree with Amber - a spa weekend is in order!

mCat said...

I don't think a day goes by that my eye doesn't twitch. What the crap does that mean???

Jo said...

It can also be caused by suggestion. My eye, the left one has twitched four time since I read your post, and I am NOT kidding!

It's a tummor. That's the only possible explanation.
