Getting better, but...
There was something unnerving after a “contact bandage” removed from my eye didn’t improve my blurred vision. I was under the naive impression that after healing under the contact for 5 days my blurry vision was the simple result of a dirty contact, and that removal would change that instantly.  Like putting on glasses, my vision would snap right back.  I knew the folly of that...

Oh, F13.
Good news today, despite the bricking of my 4G iPod touch this morning.   A corneal abrasion in my right eye, the result of some aggressive itching and rubbing due to a bacterial infection in both eyes, seems to be healing nicely.  Even though the eye is now light sensitive and I have to cycle through “eye naps” every half hour or so to rest it, I’m no longer concerned that the...

Myself, I had returned home and was online when I noticed the Tweets about Obama planning to address the nation.  It wasn’t long before the speculation began, but my friends quickly nailed it.  Twitter is indispensable in this way.

It's a Cam-off
So after many years of using a Konica DiMage A1 and then my current Konica Minolta DiMage A2, I’ve decided to kick KM to the curb and spend a few dollars on either a Canon (T1i, T2i, or T3i) or Nikon (D5000 or D5100).  I’m leaning in the Nikon direction, because the D5100 has an HDR feature (unusable, some would say), but that’s just my mood today. I don’t think I can go...
