Heute erhielt ich mein neue Health Card. Ich geglaubt dass ich muessen ein lange warten… aber es war sehr schnell (zwanzig minuten? — und ich denke, dass die leute vor mir waren IAM Members, aber ich sagte nicht hello… entschuldigung). Manchmal Brokratie ist leistungsfaehig?
Anders als das ich fast kaufte heroin (todungluecklich, hoffen fuer ruhe), aber anstatt erhielt ich ein glckliches [doctor's prescription]. Ich denke pillen sind besser als nadeln — fr medizin, nur nicht fuer BME/HARD, haha!
PS. Ich wisse mein schriftlicher Deutsch ist schlecht; moeglicherweise verstehen leute, oder moeglicherweise nicht… Aber ich verstehe, und manchmal ist es einfacher zu denken in meiner ersten sprache. Fuer jetzt…
Meine chirurgie ist am acht August. Ich wissen nicht wenn ich kann den lang warten. Die schmerz uberwaltigt mich. Ein tag hintereinander, eine minute hintereinander, eine sekunde hintereinander… es beendet nie, aber es must beenden.
You know, I've got to admit that even though I had a specialist doctor give my eye an intense check-up and got a clean bill of health (if not sanity, ha), it's so freaky looking in terms of “holy hell that thing is rotting in your skull”, and I'm such a paranoid guy, that I do still have moments where I'm totally convinced this is going to go terribly wrong. It's a bit sore this morning, maybe a little swollen, so I hope I didn't rub it in my sleep or something, or — god-forbid — pick up some infection at the gym.
I don't think my eye has ever been this bloodshot in my life! Maybe I should just stop typing and drawing (I wrote a couple of limericks for Nefarious and drew matching cartoons on the latest postcards) and otherwise incessantly straining my eye. I'm not very good at taking it easy. Speaking of, within the month I should have all the hardware I need for making custom carved frames for paintings, custom carved ear plugs, and whatever (I got a low-end CNC router for wood and plastic work — once I get it, I'll post some example work because I have to make a few grand to pay for it!).
Other than that, it's now less than a week before my pre-admit for my procedure to remove the bone tumor from my leg. I'm not sure exactly when the date for the surgery is. It could be as early as Friday, most likely next Monday (as in the 16th). It'll be very nice to get that over with…
This has been one of the craziest up and down weeks in the last few years — and I have a crazy up and down life in general! Lots of good stuff, and lots of stress and silly drama that hopefully will be over soon. But, better than a boring life, right? Maybe not. Maybe boring would be relaxing. Jajaja.
My eye is doing quite well still. It totally looks like a gnarly rotten zombie eye right now, I admit, but I'm just so thrilled with it (but I am very jealous of the amazing results that Josh got on his). Definitely one of my favorite things I've done in a long time modification-wise and I can't wait to do more!
Anyway, we're all just getting caught up after the time destruction of BMEfest/ModProm/etc and we're chewing through the image queue and all that, ModBlog should fire up again in earnest in the next couple days, and Jon and I are getting together tomorrow for a worksession to build some new toys and finish up the overhaul of ModBlog's look and feel (so yeah, you'll finally have a search function). And watch the fights of course.
Other than that, did you know that if you buy two Red Bull sodas that you are charged a $0.02 surcharge? Haha. Taurine addicts can't do math I guess because they're so wired.
Oh, and you may remember that Rachel's Lotus Elise got totaled. I sent her this card to make her feel better about it and it arrived so she said it was alright to post it (I couldn't before because it had to be a surprise).. She's off at an audition for some movie right now with Nefarious. Fingers crossed!
Well, time to pick up some woodworking tools that I've been meaning to get, do a little computer work, and watch some TV with Saira — who is training for her first marathon right now with Daniel, so if anyone's a runner and feels like sending her tips, I'm sure they'd be appreciated.
I went to the hospital this morning (all very good results so far) for a check up. Click the picture of my ultra-dilated eye (because of drops) to find out more.
