Sticky Eyes!

There is something about me that you may not know... No, I don't have any big secrets to divulge. I have "sticky eyes". What is this condition you say? Well, it is a strange reaction my eyes have to syrup. Whenever I am around syrup whether I am eating it or not, my eyes get sticky. You might say "well, don't touch your eyes". But I don't even have to touch the syrup. My eyes just start feeling sticky when I am in the same vicinity as syrup.

It is a very weird phenomenon. Until a few years ago, I thought I was alone in this condition. Come to find out, my sister has the same problem. We had never discussed it as children or even realized it affected each other in the same way. It is possible that we could have some weird allergic reaction, I guess.

Why bring it up today, you ask? Well, Carson had french toast sticks (from Aldi) with syrup to dunk it in this morning. All I did was wipe my eyes with his napkin (no syrup on the napkin itself) and immediately I had sticky eyes.

No big deal, I get over it, but it is temporarily annoying. If this is hereditary, I pray Ephraim doesn't have it, because he is already sensitive about things. He'd really be worked up with sticky eyes. Carson could deal, I think. Only time will tell.
