I had an appointment with a new eye doctor yesterday (at a real office, not one in a back alley like last time). Apparently I've been wearing, for the last three years, contact lenses that I was supposed to replace every 4 weeks or so. They fit well and I can see fine, so there isn't a problem, but I'm getting a new set anyway.

They put those drops into my eyes to dilate my pupils, which took six or seven hours to contract. Driving around in the rain with sunglasses on must have looked a little weird. What was really freaky was that sometime during last night's rehearsal, my eyesight started to go blurry again. One of the flute players told me my right eye was still dilated, but my left wasn't. I took that as a sign I should probably go to bed early and let things sort themselves out.

I apparently have something weird going on with my optic nerves or retinas or something about a slight excess of pressure in side my head. Must be from my GINORMOUS BRAIN.
