I was out sick on Monday. When I woke up, I had the irresistible urge to show myself my dinner. Sharron twisted my arm and in to the doctor I went. I thought I had the flu or something, but the doctor suspected Appendicitis. If Sharron wasn’t staying with me, he would have admitted me to the hospital for observation. Instead, he told me the list of symptoms to watch out for and told me to come back immediately if any of them appeared, or Tuesday morning if they didn’t. None of the symptoms he was looking for ever showed up. Instead, I starting producing large volumes of fluid from my nose and sneezing a lot. I drank some fluids and stayed in bed all day. When I went back to the doctors Tuesday morning, the nurse that saw me asked me when my last eye exam was. When I told them it had been since 2002 he made me get one right then. This morning I went and saw the optometrist. By Monday I’ll be wearing glasses. 20/40 in my left eye. 20/50 in my right eye. My eyesight isn’t bad enough to get me laser eye surgery so I’ll have to wait a few years for that. They don’t do contact lenses here, but he said I could go to any place in the states and get them, so I’ll be doing that over Christmas break. You can image my surprise at all this. Fun fun!
