Feeling a little bit alien
I've not quite felt like myself this week, the downside of beautiful flowers and summer sun has been allergies. My eyes have been a red and watery mess so I'm taking antihistamines and using eye-drops. I don't recognise the person in the mirror, my eyes are not my own!
The bug-eyed monster is an early convention of the science fiction genre. Extraterrestrials in science fiction of the 1930s were often described (or pictured on covers of pulp magazines) as grotesque creatures with huge, oversized or compound eyes and a lust for women, blood or general destruction. The term is now often abbreviated to BEM.
In the contactee/abductee mythology which grew up quickly beginning in 1952, the blond, blue-eyed, and friendly Nordic aliens of the 1950s were quickly replaced by small, unfriendly bug-eyed creatures, closely matching in many respects the pulp cover clichés of the 1930s which have remained the abductor norm since the 1960s.
Have a wonderful day!
Ha! One eye bigger than other! That is funny! Thank you!

Hope you are feeling better very soon!
On the other hand, it is apparent that sometimes great suffering has brought out great art.
