Or at least as close as I’ve ever gotten. I knew I’d be able to see without glasses or contacts; what didn’t sink in was that I’d be able to see better than I did with glasses or contacts. It still doesn’t seem possible.

Unless something goes wrong, I’m having the surgery on Friday, Aug. 19! The doctor said I’d probably see better than 20/20. I didn’t even know that was possible.
I’ve actually gotten started on this one! I’ve tried before, but I’ve never made it very long. This time I’m going on six weeks!
I’m drinking a lot of smoothies, and I love it.
I’ve bought several fake-meat products but haven’t worked up my nerve to try them yet. I’ll probably try the corn dogs first. “Real” hot dogs would be really gross without the spices and flavorings they add, so it seems reasonable that you can add the same spices and flavorings to just about anything and get something good.
