Silence means security silence means approval

It is extraordinarily dark and gray outside. I may have to resort to turning the lights on.

Looks like that's what is heading our way too.

It's already here. The Rainy Season started this morning.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It rained last night here for the first time in a while. The bars up the street from my house were all out of power. It was weird watching everybody spill out into the streets. Also, today we have 60 degree temps as opposed to the 102 it has been, which is nice. I should knit a small afgan for the office.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hello. Stupid pupil-dilating eyedrops. I had to increase the size of the text on b.org three times and I can still barely read it.

I have a blood clot in my left eye. They don't know what caused it - it's very unusual for someone of my age and not-high blood pressure to get this. They are waiting to get the bloodwork back to see if I have any disease that might cause it.

They're hoping it should clear up on its own. I'm supposed to take half an asprin a day to thin my blood. I'll probably suffer some permanent loss of vision in that eye.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, shit, man. A lot of vision?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That sucks, tommyrot. Good luck.

That does suck!

I'm cold. Stupid over air conditioned office.

That does indeed suck. I hope that there isn't more bad news for you. Vision loss is WAY more than enough, IMHO.

I'm sorry, Tommyrot, that really sucks. I hope it clears up okay.

Dunno. He just said, "some loss."

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I'm sorry, tommyrot. I hope it all works out as well as possible.
