When my cardiologist' nurse calls and leaves a message the same day as Mayo leaves a message. I wish they could start with "your heart is just fine" but we need to ask you a question. I had a 1/2 hour that reminded me alot of surprise phone call I got 9 years ago.
Here I thought that nothing could derail this inner joy I have about my eyes. Well, this little scare showed me, oh yes, heart problems could seriously dampen my eye joy.
But it was just a scare - so I'm still happy.
This blog is mostly about my experience with my last strabismus surgery and how it surprises me almost every day.

My operated eye really ached about an hour after I got up this morning, noticed it when I ate breakfast. I had already taken 3 ibuprofen for other "normal" pain. But my eye really hurt.
I noticed too that I couldn't tweeze at work today. It's a little frustrating. I have to put the tweezers down and take a mini break sometimes cuz I get frustrated. I call it 'swing and a miss' I can't quite grab 'em. I thought I was past that. But maybe when it's just when I'm in pain I can't tweeze.
No pain though after the ibuprofen had kicked in. Pain came back around 5 for a little while didn't take anything it went away on it's own. Why does it hurt? Whoooooo knows.

Need to write
Okay, so I worked all day doing nothing but facials. Facials are great to receive and give but by facial number 3 the technician starts getting bored. And a little more daring, I might add, as I want SOMETHING interesting to happen. Anyway, I had, what I term an Oprah moment, or an Aha, moment, visiting with a first time client. Client number 2. Sweet thing! So we're talking about whether it is a blessing or a curse to be in tune with your body/mind etc and how it is affected by even little things. So I say to her. "I've had this sore throat for two weeks." (Cuz I have) She right away says, 'oh, that means your having trouble voicing something or communicating something." Well, whatever, and it's hard to explain but I have learned there is something to these theories - sometimes. But right away my mind goes back to when I recently found this letter from egghead to Dr. Lucius. I think I blogged about it before. It was about two weeks ago I found that letter. And it has bothered me ever since. So much I didn't want it in the house anymore but didn't think I should chuck it as maybe there is something relevant to it. Just wish I had found it before surgery. So I got rid of it by mailing it to Dr. Holmes. That guy must think I'm a freak. Oh well, maybe I am. But you would be too if you were. :)
I am just for some reason upset by anything 'egghead'.
I don't remember all the details from that long ago. When I read the letter - well, here I was 25 not 26 like I thought. Well, if I goofed up my memory of my age, what else did I goof up? I feel like blaming myself all over again and for what? I just know something wasn't right back there but I can't put my finger on it. I really would like someone to explain to me what they think, because at the moment I honestly don't know what to think. I'm not trusting my memory of it. I wish Dr. Holmes could tell me his summary of what he thinks from his perspective, how should it have been handled? Did 'egbert' do all the right things and I just didn't understand. I'm sure that I would not have wanted to go back for rechecks with him but why didn't he explain why I needed to go back for rechecks? It's like I need validation again. I already got that back when Dr. Holmes said he'd speak with Egbert. How much more validation could you need?
Anyway, after that client stated this communication problem theory. I kinda think she's right. So writing is good for me to sort out all of this stuff.
All I know about the past for sure is how I feel about it. For some reason it makes me feel really bad. Kind of sick and nauseous. Like I can't eat. I don't remember what was all said and done, but I do remember how I felt and how I feel now about it.
Wish someone could explain it to me. 'Cuz I don't understand why I feel the way I do. I'm fixed why does this still bug me?
04/24/10 - My sore throat is gone now. Funny it's only after my Dr. Appointment. Who knows?

Memo to self
Don't make cross eyes back at silly kids making faces at me - it hurts.
What my mother said may be true, " your eyes are going to stay like that!"
Maybe that's what happened to me years ago. I must have made cross eyes at others and my eyes stuck. Just joking.
Not too much pain lately as long as I don't do stupid eye tricks.
