I came home today, a day earlier than we thought I would. I’m still not well
enough to report for jail tomorrow, which means that I’ll incur some extra
time to make up for it, and also as a punishment for missing it, but it
wouldn’t make sense for me to go back when I’ll have to spend the entire time
in the infirmary. I’m much more comfortable at home, and I’ve recovered enough
to start taking care of myself for the most part. My neighbor will be checking
in on me every once in a while, which she doesn’t have to do. My parole
officer will be coming over too as a sort of welfare check. I think my
therapist will show up, and not charge me for a quick session, but I’m not
about that. I pay my way, I’ll tell you. I took sick leave from work,
because I can’t keep my eyes open for long enough to get anything done, but
hopefully I’ll be fully ready to go on Monday, so I will have only missed a
week. It’s not even that I’m sleepy or tired. Have you ever seen anyone get
hypnotized, even if in fiction? The hypnotist will describe weights on their
subject’s eyelids. It kind of feels like that, but it also sort of feels like
it doesn’t matter whether my eyes are open or not, I still can’t see very
well. My surgeon thinks that that has to do with the medication that I’m on.
Blurred vision is a known side effect of at least two of them. I’m gonna stop
taking the narcotics, though. I’ve never done well with them, I personally
can’t understand why people get addicted to these things. I’ve had to take
multiple kinds over the years, and every single one of them has made me feel
like crap. I’m going to be in a lot of pain while I rely solely on
over-the-counter pain meds, but it’s nothing I’ve never experienced before.
Pain and I have an understanding. It gets to do whatever it wants to me, and
in exchange, I get nothing. I do want to circle back to that thing about my
therapist. Not because of my therapist, but because of the money thing.
Apparently, one of my readers started a CauseTogether.hope page for me. I want
you to know that I have absolutely nothing to do with this, and I am currently
working with the platform administrators to have all backers so far fully
refunded, and shut the page down. I neither want nor need your charity. I’m
making plenty of money, and I will be able to pay my own hospital bills. I
shouldn’t have any lost wages from my time off, because the company I work for
has great benefits. Really, please do not try to give me money. A nurse
suggested that I could just regift it to charity, but no, I don’t want to
reward this behavior. If I can’t get the page taken down, I’m donating it all
to the nearest convicted serial killer, out of spite. You have been warned.
Refund and take it down!
