In The Land Of The Blind
At the end of October I went in to hospital for an eye transplant operation. Because of this I had to spend a month off work. For the first few weeks I wasn't in a fit state to leave the house. This resulted in me slumped down on the couch watching television. However there is only so long one can watch daytime TV before they develope a completely natural and understandable desire to kill all life.
After two hours I'd reached my tolorance thresh hold and turned off the television.
I tired to read my book for a bit but the words were tiny and made my operated eye itch and my head hurt[1]. So I gave up on that and eventually bought myself some games for the computer from the internet.
As the passage of time marched by leaving me forgotten in it's wake, I turned into a old hermit who did all his shopping and communication with the outside world via the internet. The world had shunned me so I in turn, shunned it.
By day two I would of completely lost it. Thankfully the games I'd ordered arrived. A combination of playing these, watching television, conversing with the dog and bitterly staring out the window at the hated world I managed to maintain my sanity.
Now I'm well on the mend and back at work (boo) so hopefully I'll be able to get up to more wacky and zany adventures in the near future.
[1]Oh yes, har-de har. No reading words doesn't usually make my head hurt.
