Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

my right eye is a distance and the left a close-up

I was given that option with my surgery, because they weren't sure how much correction I'd need for close-up. But I did a test run with two different contact lenses, and it was horrible. There was always a sense of something being out of focus, and one of my great joys is being able to look out at the landscape and see it in focus. I only need readers for small print, and if I have a bright light I don't need them then.

Sean, much health-ma to your mom. My dad had A-fib 7 years ago, and after they stabilized him, they inserted a pacemaker/defibrillator right into him. He's still going at 88.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Health~ma for your mom, Sean.

I should look at the implantable contact lens surgery. Given that my mom just had cataract surgery, and my maternal grandmother & great-grandmother both had cataracts, it's a fairly sure bet that I'll have them.

It doesn't do anything for the cataracts though--I still have my original lenses, and could totally get cataracts when I'm older.

Oh. Darn. Still, no contacts (or glasses) would be a bonus. Maybe in a few years.

The Facebook "Here are your memories!" list is rolling around to that time two years ago. Maybe I shouldn't read them. But hiding from it doesn't make it hurt less.

Lots of love, Connie.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Sean, all digits crossed.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Sean, lots of mom~ma.

Connie, yeah, words are just so inadequate for times like this.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Lots of ~ma for your Mom, Sean. I know it's scary, so some for you too. {{{Sean}}}
