The Rumors Are True: I Have Contracted Pink Eye

I woke up this morning and just had a slightly red eye. It wasn't itchy, there wasn't any real gunk. I wear contacts sometimes and as recently as Saturday, so having a slightly irritated eye isn't anything I haven't dealt with. But when I went into the office today, Dave Portnoy walked by my desk and we struck up a quick conversation. That conversation halted mid-sentence when he blurted out, "Whoa what's wrong with your eye? You have pink eye!"

I haven't had pink eye since I was around kindergarten age, I hadn't even know what the symptoms were. I immediately googled them and they didn't all apply. But nevertheless, I went down to the pharmacy downstairs and picked up some eye drops. I put them in, but symptoms only got worse. 

Conjunctivas is very contagious so I went right home and picked up an eye patch. I'll be conducting my business remotely until this passes but please keep me in your thoughts as I fight this dreaded virus.
