Oh BUGGER. Buggerbuggerbuggerbugger.

Froglet being a kind, affectionate, sharing little person, she has very generously contaminated tadpole, in a very Judas-like manner: let me kiss you, my dear, and give you a good dose of whatever it is I am carrying. Oh boy, this is highly contagious stuff. (She's kissed me too, but I am notoriously conjunctivitis-resistant. Considering it makes me Principal Eye Healer in the House, I consider this a very mixed blessing)

Am stuck at home with two sick, cranky kids.

*has panic attack*

*calms down*

Have to put ointment in their eyes every once so often. And husband is off to work.

*has second panic attack*

*hyperventilates*

oh, BUGGER. Am going to sit in a corner and quietly go insane.

And Sam? No snogging without goggles.

Oh dear! And it's not even something that's icky when you've got it, but only happens once, a la chickenpox. Good luck, and I hope froglet and tadpole recover quickly!

*Sends healthy eye vibes across several oceans and a large land mass or two*

Thanks! I can certainly use the healthy eye vibes!

Froglet's already much better, and tadpole right behind her, so it'll probably be over soon; that's the good point about conjunctivitis - with chickenpox, you're looking at 3 weeks incubation time plus 3 weeks in spotty monster form, so if you have more than one kid you're easily cooped up for 5 to 6 weeks...

Also, I've got the ultimate weapon now. Annoy me, and I'll smear you with the Evil Eye Goop of Doom. *evil grin*

(Am trying very hard to think of positive things to say about conjunctivitis. I'm not sure I'm making a very point here though. Huh.)

Finally, I'm very lucky that winter's over! My kids shouldn't be in contact with other kids, but at least we can still go outside. :D
