another day another dollar. it was a long day at work, beginning by waking up around 5:30 am after a night of little sleep, and then just getting back home around 5:45 pm. working for an optometrist is draining. while i do enjoy it somewhat, i’m also reminded each day why i decided not to become an optometrist.
today i saw a 12 year old patient with glaucoma. i saw a 16 year old girl who suddenly lost the ability to use her legs about 3 weeks ago and has constantly dilated pupils and pain in her eyes. no one really can say what’s wrong with her.
it wears me out.
last night there were tornados. i spent the evening in the closet of my basement, with a baseball helmet on, reading “the trial” by kafka. hopefully tonight the weather won’t be so tumultuous, and hopefully i’ll be able to find some sleep.
