Bumpy ending for spring break

L went to visit her friend, J, on Thursday and stayed at his apartment Thursday and Friday night, when he had a birthday party. They know each other from Journeys so she was getting paid to work in his Chicago Ridge Mall store and to help with inventory at Fox Valley Mall.
Saturday morning she texted us to pick her up, saying she couldn't open her eye and she thinks she has pink eye. It's always something. Instead of taking her to an urgebpnt care we convinced her to go to health services Monday when she's back on campus. She went to the pediatrician in first grade when the school nurse thought she had pink eye and we were prescribed $80 of eye drops. Her eye cleared up in a couple days, pretty much on its own barely using the drops. Lesson learned.
She was pretty miserable this morning. She barely ate bacon (!) Andy made for breakfast.
Once we got to Champaign we went right to an urgent care that she's visited before.
We weren't even in the care center 10 minutes when she saw the doctor and was prescribed eye drops. This time they only cost us $35.
It's always fun to drive around a college town. We all got lunch then we dropped her off at her dorm.
Driving home we saw this Tonka truck. Apparently they're pretty rare. Found this online - Officially, Ford claims that 500 Tonkas were made between 2014 and 2016. However, the Tonka truck edition was re-released in 2020 with an extremely limited run—only 100 Tonka trucks were made! Only 100? Rare indeed.
