Twitchy Eye Drives Woman Insane

This is going to be the headline after I go on some crazy rampage. The reporters will go on to explain that I had previously been a reasonably sane young woman, until one fateful day an annoying eye twitch appeared . . . and never left.

For the last 5 days, I have had a persistent twitch in my right eye. I've seen it in a mirror, and it is noticeable. Others claim they can't see it, but I think they're just being polite (or they're in cahoots with the twitch.) With each twitch, I feel my mental stability deteriorating (not really, but I do feel sorta like a crazy person when it starts going.)

My sister-in-law attributes it to stress, but I informed her that I'm not stressed. Twitch, twitch. I'm totally relaxed and calm. twitch twitch. What's there to be twitch twitch stressed about?

But really, I do feel good, just annoyed that my dern eye seems to think I'm stressed and won't quit twitching.

Maybe I'll start wearing a pirate patch over that eye. I like talking like a pirate, so maybe I'll just start dressing like one too. Argh, me scurvy ridden twitch eye.

Why doesn't anyone tell us that we will not only have to share our bodies with the cute little babies who take them over but our brains too?

I say go for the Pirate patch; my son will think you're really cool.
