Dilation Sucks…

Not much has happened really. I did get a reply from one of the girls though and was updated a bit on what has happened where they are. It explained a lot and I wasn’t surprised. Sigh… If only I was able to take them away from all their problems.
Um… That story I started has come to a stand still, so I began writing something else. It is 125 pages now, but it might end up coming to a stand still too. Why? My head was screwed over again.
On Friday I went to the eye doctor for my yearly checkup. Well, my eyes wouldn’t dilate from the drops the first time. The lady put in the drops a second time. There was still no result. Thus, I got them a third bloody time! Finally my right eye dilates, so it gets tested, when moving onto my left, it is finally dilated, too.
After that a headache started. A few more tests occurred and some other sort of eye drops was used for something else. Finally I get out of there. The lady warns me my eyes will likely be dilated all day.
Well, wasn’t that the bloody truth.
I mainly was in bed the rest of Friday and wasn’t even going to both with the vacuum. Focusing on anything that moved too much or was not just a few feet in front of me hurt my head. I could use the computer a bit, but had to wear sunglasses when doing so… in fact I wore them whenever I was awake.
That is something, because my room’s windows are always covered by closed blinds and at most I have a single lamp on. I kept the lamp off that day. I housed a headache most of the day and I can’t take anything like Advil… ibuprofen is still a major no-no for me. Oi.
Then my parents come home when five comes around. We are going out to eat. I don’t know how well I’ll handle it, but I get out of bed anyway. Checking my eyes, they were still dilated like mad. So with sunglasses on, I went out with them.
I survived and we headed back home. My eyes were still dilated. I managed to watch some shows with my mom though as long as my hat was shielding my eyes. By nine thirty I don’t bother anymore and headed for my room.
I can’t really remember much of the night, but I was able to work on the computer some. I tried writing that second story, but it was very… hard. My head felt blank but I typed anyway. I went back to bed after fighting a headache late… maybe it was two or so?
Well, Saturday came today. I got up around ten, took a shower and found my eyes weren’t as bad as yesterday, but they were still dilated. Bah. I wasn’t in the mood to step out into the bright light and then enter the brightly lit grocery store either… but I always go with my dad. I had to suck it up.
Since my eyes weren’t as bad as the day before, I decided to rely on my hat rather than my sunglasses. Bad move. By the time I’ve been through the store for a short time, I ask my dad for his sunglasses. I took them and put them over my regular ones – I’m blind without prescription sunglasses. Well, we managed to get through, but my head was suffering and because of that I began feeling nauseated as well.
We finally got out of there, packed the groceries and I gave my dad back his sunglasses. In the car I could keep my eyes closed. We stopped so he could get his usual lunch and then headed home. Just entering the house helped. With the windows and natural daylight, no lights were on.
I put up the groceries as my dad carried them in, ate lunch and when able to, I retreated to my bed again. My pupils were still the same. So… from one or so to about five-thirty I was in my room, keeping it dark and made sure I did nothing so another evil headache didn’t strike again. When I got up though, my pupils were a bit smaller. They weren’t there usual size, however. Oi.
My mom calls me around six or seven? I cooked some noodles and we watched some shows. I checked my eyes in between… they still weren’t the right size yet, but closer. Finally we stop watching at around ten.
I did some chores after that. There was laundry and the kitchen per usual. My mom was on the computer and noted something to me. It looked to be a connection error, so I checked mine. Well, it was just the browser she was using. She goes to bed then and I check my eyes.
They are back to normal finally! It took a day and a half plus an extra hour, but they finally were back to normal! Hallelujah! They were back!
Well, that is it… that is all that is “news worthy”. Heh…
Other than that, nothing much has occurred. I will be going for the usual “haircut expedition” this coming Friday though. During that I’ll try getting some new glasses too. My left eye has changed dramatically. I’m so bloody blind now. It is evil.
Well, my head is still blank… so… yeah. End…
