Succesful Scleral Buckle

Still with the polysyllables.

MyGuy's surgery went very well. At his next-day eye check, the doc wanted him to report which lines he saw; MyGuy was able to not only see them but read them. Yay! He look like he's been kick-boxed by a particularly aggressive badger – deep purple restricted to a tiny area. If I posted the results to shutterspeed I might induce vomiting.

He's having very little pain – yay*yay. He's off work for a week but doesn't have any impending deadlines – yay*yay*yay.

MagicB took me out to the grocery store on Friday. I made the huge mistake of relying on the store's scooter, instead of bringing my own chair. Operating that scooter in the (noisy crowded) store was a lot like piloting a barge in whitewater. Plus! It had a built-in backup alarm. (Which probably makes some sort of sense for very occasional users.) It consumed every last bit of executive functioning in the already low pool. But we've got enough to eat.

So, thanks all for your kind thoughts – they clearly worked!
