You would not believe how boring it is when you can't:
  • use a computer
  • read
  • watch TV
  • Navigate the outside world because NOW it decides to be bright and sunny
  • Navigate a phonebook, electronic or otherwise
I am typing this with my screen on its biggest setting and the font on about size one million. My keyboard is a blur, and I have to look away from my screen and blink furiously between sentences. I'm gonna go to bed in a minute just for something to do.

On the upside, the stabbing pain has gone away, and my vision can only improve... And it will - I mean, I haven't lost perspective on why I'm doing this. It's just, now would be good.

*rubs back* Listen to music? Podfic?

*accepts sympathy*

Podfic has saved my sanity. I've spent the last couple of days in my darkened living room with podfic running through the TV - because then it's big enough for me to navigate - lying on the sofa wearing sunglasses and feeling sorry for myself. But, today I can see so much better! \o/ I have to go tomorrow to get out the temporary contacts that've been holding my poor abused corneas in place, and then I'm imagining clarity - and this'll all have been totally worth it. &hearts

That'd be why I haven't texted you yet. I would have otherwise to check how you were, promise.

I really appreciated the good luck text! I was a bit wibbly wobbly and it bolstered me.

I can practically see, today! This is very exciting.

So, we should set a date for RL geekery. How're you fixed for August?

I have nothing planned as yet - haven't actually found a job yet, so I'll come whenever you want me. :D

(My lengthly pause on this is me waiting for C to get back to me on our work schedule for the next few weeks. Looking forward to seeing you soon!)

I'd send you help, and of course it would be pretty.
I'd *read* fanfic to you, if there weren't the distance and the little stretch of ocean in between my 'here' and your 'here'.
Just... I hope it will get better soon! (Is it supposed to take this long?)

Hey &hearts

Yeah, it takes this long when you're cheap and go for the most brutal, painful, inconveniencing treatment they offer. *grumbles* But it'll all be worth it soon. I can already see much better than I could yesterday - it's even improved appreciably today. \o/ I'm hoping that tomorrow I'll be catching up on my flist - [livejournal.com profile] nayesaid you posted your tag, it's at the top of my list and I'm looking forward to it!

I miss the Internets! *hugs you*

The internets miss you too!

*hugs you back*

A joyful \o/ for improvement!
