  1. The optician and eye clinic could both fit me in today, and although I definitely have a damaged cornea, it should heal on its own.
  2. Lisa bought me some proper adhesive eyepatches so I am not creating a monstrosity with medical tape and can cover the eye that cannot focus. The patches are quite comfortable and easy to apply, they fit very naturally!
  3. Bettany Hughes’ new book was placed on the shelf about a second before I got to it in the bookshop, so now I have a copy of that. I figured a new book was the least I deserved, all things considered.

  1. 24 hours has made a big difference to how my eye feels; still quite blurry, but nothing like as uncomfortable. Human bodies are wild!
  2. Two FFXIV friends waited to do a fun thing together until I could join too.
  3. Disposable income. I’ve simply ordered something I forgot. Not that it’s good to wastefully do so, but this is something where a spare comes in handy.

  1. SGQ: I was at shops next to my physio’s place yesterday so I dropped in to see her just to say hi. She was pleased to see me and we had a nice chat about our Christmases.
  2. This image from a kickstarter amused me. It’s an infographic showing that the product can be used in many places (plane, train, beach, park, etc) but not volcanoes. :smile:
  3. This forum’s software reminded me that I’d already posted an article here that I was grateful for today. Apparently I’d read it two years ago and completely forgotten about it! :laughing: On the assumption that everyone else has also forgotten: Some of Australia’s ibis have learnt how to eat cane toads without suffering from the poison (they shake the toads to stress them so they emit poison then wash them in a creek). It’s still awesome.

  1. I remembered to bring moisturiser.
  2. My sister has lent me a controller for my games until the one I ordered arrives.
  3. I figured out an easier way to get the antibiotic ointment into my eye than the method in the leaflet.

  1. Played a new card game (‘Bohnanza - The Duel’) and it was great fun - and hilarious, the way it always is when you are starting a new game and learning the rules together!
  2. Made it through BodyPump with a step up in weights on three rounds
  3. Cats have been cool this evening
