Just picked up my new glasses since I realized I couldn't read with my left eye anymore. These are far more powerful than my last pair, and my god I don't think I've had such a strong reaction to new specs. From the moment I put them on, to now hours later it feels like I'm in a funhouse. I know its going to take time for my brain to adjust to these but its actually a pretty disorienting. It could be my brain is trying to relearn how to use both eyes since my right was compensating for so

So its been over a year since I had that infection that messed up my left eye, and i don't think its getting better.

Right now if I close my good eye and look at the screen the letters just vanish into a grey, hazy line. I know there's text there but its impossible to read. I can only read it clearly if I increase the text size up to 500% and that's with my glasses. without its still hard to read. I can only read something if the page is held inches away from my face.

Had to replace my keyboard due to a frayed wire, but things are progressing. As predicted, as I edit the chapter its fast becoming another 'what was I thinking?' moment as some portions don't add to the story and are getting rewritten or dumped entirely.

But on a happier note, I'm wishing you all a merry christmas and a happy new year. Hopefully it'll be better than the last one.

Okay, so I managed to connect the 3 big portions of the chapter I wrote but I need to reread it to make sure it makes sense. Thankfully i seem to edit faster than write these days. I hope to get you guys a new chapter soon. Even if its shorter than what I hope, I want to get my readers something before next week.

Some people here expressed interest in my comedy about a guy going to live with two mad scientists: I decided to post a link to the first draft of the first chapter. its a little rough and dialogue heavy but that's what the second draft is for.

Got another eye appointment, and my symptoms have thankfully been gone for weeks now. but I can feel like a lot of the progress I made recovering my sight in my left eye was set back. if I squint I can read my monitor with it, or if the text is really big, but without my glasses its really bad. even painting my miniatures is a little hard.

After a whole slew of eye exams that I never knew existed (such as taking photos of the underside of my eyelids) I was put back on the strong meds I was on at the start of this, and on steroid drops. 4 drops of steroids a day for a week to combat the swelling.

So a few days ago I noticed my eye was hurting a bit. my sinuses had been acting up and they tend to make everything else in my face hurt. no big deal, I thought. Now its red, burning, and a rash is spreading out from it. So guess what, my shingles has returned.

No holes in my vision, but I'm already upping my meds and steroids to try to knock it down, and tomorrow I call my doctor to get an appointment to get more pillz.

New chapter finished. Its going to be short compared to previous ones but its been long enough between updates. Editing starts tomorrow.

Nothing to really report personally. just been busy IRL. Learning to play traveler 2e for my gaming group's also been slowing me down lately but it looks like a fun system

And all my data's been restored. It even costed less than I was originally quoted. Still pricey but I got my data back, and backed up on 3 different USB drives.
