So my eye is almost completely healed. I got a really good night's sleep. I hung out last night with this cool guy I met on line. Not sex - just hanging out, by my request. I'll hopefully get to know him better, because he seems really cool.

Mark just left for his mom's for a visit, and he probably won't be back until late tonight, or early tomorrow. That means I don't have the car. Not sure what I'm going to do today. I'm going to watch at least 1 episode of Angel/Buffy. But I'm thinking about reorganizing a bunch of stuff, and maybe getting some art finished. I'm working on a poem; it's being written the way I used to write all of them, with planning and time. It used to be that I couldn't just WRITE; back in the day I had to plan everything out. Both methods offer impressive results; they're just very different.

I don't think I wrote this out the other day, because I wrote it all out in an e-mail, and didn't feel like writing it again...I still don't, so I'm just gonna cut & paste it - this was written yesterday morning in an e-mail to my boss (DJ):

My eye hurts a little less today (I think) but it's still all swollen. Mark brought Mollie over last night, and we watched some Nip/Tuck while I gave myself repeated warm compresses on my right eye. It mostly sucked because you take those things off your eye, and it's all wet and bleary from the warmth & the moisture, and the eye is already not the greatest.

(we actually watched 6 episodes of Nip/Tuck, and now Mollie is all caught up)

Mark fell asleep but Mollie really needed to get home - so in a fit of really poor judgment I said I'd drive her home. Nearly died. A couple times. Not only was my eye all screwy, but I was super-tired, and it was raining. Coming home I rolled the window down; the cold rain helped with the tired feeling (as did me singing at the top of my lungs) but the eye troubles persisted. I drove through town instead of
taking the express way - figured if I crashed this way, at least I'd
probably survive - plus the stops at lights & signs would give me a breather. It worked in that I made it home without killing myself, the car, or anyone else - but I went right to bed.

So I wanted to say I'm sorry that I'm not there for work today, but that it's really for the best. I just feel bad when I can't make it into work. Bright light screws up my squinty eye, so I've got the contrast on my monitor turned way down. Anyways - I hope work is dead today, and that
whoever covered my shift really wanted to work - and no one is put out at all.

And I'm hoping that Buffy/Angel continues to enthrall you ;-0)

By the time the sun went down on Friday, my eye was so much better...it was such a relief. I considered calling work and asking if I could work a shift today, but then remembered about Mark's trip, and me being without a car. I went to gay.com out of boredom and got chatted up by like 6 guys, including Sam. I ended up inviting this other guy over, who is just really interesting. He's young & OUT, and an artist, and extremely sexual, and he's got a hot voice, and a nice smile, and we had fun, without having sex. I really enjoyed myself, and it would be nice to hang out with him in the future; and if we just remained friends, I'd be fine with that, though I'd have to jack off alot, which isn't a problem per say. lol

I don't want to hang out near the computer too much; even though my eye looks almost completely healed, I can still feel how it isn't; just like I could feel it before it even looked bad. And I don't want my eye strained by looking at the computer all day. Maybe I'll go for a walk.
