Kes: I've mentioned The Eyeborg Project previously--it's a man who had his prosthetic eye implanted with a camera hooked up to a live webcam--and in his YouTube video, he travels the world talking to other cyborgs on the subject of augmentation

Excitement

I just learned that my proposal for a Readercon presentation titled "Ask a Blind Person: What Good Writers Still Get Wrong about Blind People" was approved, hurray! This is the part where I start begging my friends and vague acquaintances to show up for my presentation so I won't be talking to an empty room, and yes, I would too notice!

Also, it is beginning to seem like I may actually really be getting a new right eyeball--I go to my ocularist on Monday, and I have already told LJ user alexx_kay that he is to take pictures of everything, including my ocularist's head exploding when I explain that I haven't changed my mind about wanting the mismatched Delirium eyes.

And I'm also looking forward to Monday because my sweetie will be back after five days at GDC. Of course, it will be a rainy Monday, and Alexx has never been very good at rainy Mondays--he has a rainy Monday face which is very close to his curmudgeon face, but a little lower on the adorable expressions spectrum. Oh well, a sleep-depped zombie sweetie is better than an on-the-other-side-of-the-country sweetie and I'll still be the only one with the detachable body parts.

tomorrow at 1 PM somewhere in Peabody, so I expect to be offline for a while. Just in time, too, because the headache has escalated enough that I had to take the serious drugs twice already today. Yesterday I had the medical history questionairre with a nurse and when she got to the part about whether I use recreational drugs I just snorted, because I actually can't wait to get off the drugs. I can't believe people pay good money in order to be this wasted. I would like my brain back now, please.
