i’m writing this with my own eyes!
got back from lasik a bit ago so pardon the spelling.. but im typing this without glasses! and i can kinda see! although im wearing these jacked up huge stevie wonder sunglasses they gave me to put on.
dudes lasik is so werid! it was over fast but i swear i nearly ripped the stuffed animal they gave me in half. its the longet 20 seconds ever. its like your staring at this light, they everything is pressurey and you cant see anything but grey. then they go back and your supposed to stare at this orange blinking light while the laser clicks next to you. the problem is i couldnt tell where the damn light was hlaf the time. i thought it was moving or something and i tried to focus but i guess my eye was moving. but we got through it eventually. honetly youre only in the laser room for like 10 minutes.
but then my eyes slammed shut and i couldnt open them for anything the whole car ride home. they were so achy and itchy and i was just miserable driving from arlington heights but we made it home and then itook a super short nap wearing some other goggles and now i can kind of see but things are still fuzzy. i think im gonna take some more tylenol and go back to sleep for a bit.
the wonder of lasers! the magic of science! the fantastic winder of giantg whirring machines!
thanks for all the well wishes. see you guys (for real) very soon…

Congrats. No scratching. And enjoy the eye drops for the next 3-6 months. Good times.
Even though it’s almost a year since I had lasik, I occasionally reach up to remove my non-existent glasses before hopping in the shower. Old habits die hard.

does this qualify you as half robot? i really want to be friends with someone who’s part-robot. i think it would be neat.
