(no subject)

Owel, in case you didn't already know, had my surgery on Tuesday and it seems to have gone well. Pops even flew down from NY for a couple of days to help me out. Anyhoo, things are much clearer than before, though I'm told it will take a few days for my eye to adjust. They corrected my vision while they went in there, and while I don't have to lean forward now to read the screen, I'm still having a little trouble reading it for now, the text is still a little blurry. I mean, my distant vision works, and like I said things are much clearer (which is grossing me out because I'm noticing grime in places I was blissfully unaware of before.) but its still difficult reading. Well, I have another doctor's appointment Monday, hopefully the situation will improve by then.

I wish I had a better litmus test for whether my vision has improved. Maybe I should try something requiring hand-eye coordination, like a game. But I gave up video games for lent. Well, I had to correct that to console games, since I had played in the arcade in the Philippines and also when I saw Hidalgo with zarathustra94 and turdburgler last Saturday. I didn't even realize I was breaking any rules until C pointed out, "didn't you give up video games?" while I was playing Time Crisis 3. But I digress. An arcade light gun shooter would work. My vision was impairing my performance since I couldn't see guys in the far off distance shooting at me, nor the axes, knives, and grenades being thrown at me. So if I can see those, I'll know my vision has definitely improved.

Oh, Wednesday's South Park was making me a little queasy, what with Butters getting the ninja star in the eye. (And Arrested Development had Elaine playing a dupposedly blind character, what's with all the blidness refs all of a sudden?) Actually, I'm a little freaked out about my eye now, since the parentals kept on warning me not to do this or that. They got me so freaked I get nervous just turning my head too fast. I worry about every cough and sneeze, and when I went to dinner with the roomie, I was dreading what would happen if we got rear ended and I experienced a heavy jolt.

Other randomness

Last night's Tru had both Glory and Cutie Mcpretty. (Or was it Hottie Mcpretty? Or Hottie Mccutie? Or Cutie Mchottie?) And Eliza Dushku was looking real pretty at the end. And nice (if you know what I mean) in the evening gown competition. Which reminds me, I did see "The New Guy" this past Sunday. Terrible movie! The Eliza Dushku swimsuit modelling scene was the only good part. And maybe the mechanical bullriding scene too.

Had a mundane dream last night. Actually, had a couple of dreams these past few days where I'd have to go to the bathroom, so I'd have to get up and go, then I'd try and drift off back to sleep and realize, I just dreamed that whole part up. I never actually got up and went, so I had to actually get up and go, which was annoying because I hate waking up in the middle of the night, and I thought I had that part done with so I could drift off to sleep. But I digress. Back to my dream, for some reason in the dreamscape OIT and WREK are always merged. So people are like broadcasting from Rich and wot-not. Anyways, dreamt about a girl I hadn't seen in a long while, and it was nice to see her in the dreamworld if not in real life. I guess I was returning to work and she had a shift on WREK. That was all. Boring, eh? But speaking of the dreamscape, the dreamscape version of CR is cool. Three floors, a nice deck on the second floor. The neighbors have a hot tub on theirs.

Oh, and I'm having to put on these giant blind-man sunglasses whenever it gets too bright. I'm wearing them right now!
