The winter of my dispair

By all rights this winter was mild in terms of messiness; very little snow and relatively clear throughout sprinkled with a few "high temp" days. But gottdamm was it freaking cold the last couple of weeks. I mean negative wind-chill and all that. Last Tuesday I had to go to the hostpital. I had a swollen eye and it got bad to where it was pressing on my eyeball and causing me headaches. So I walk to the subway and by the time I got to the stop I had wished I had gone back for even more clothes. Bah, I'll tough it out, the Mass Eye & Ear infirmary is only a minute walk from the end subway stop. By the time that one minute was up my hands were swollen red and white and blotchy, I couldn't move my face, it was painfully cold and windy. Yeh I know there are worse places to be but damm that was cold. I'm gettin outa here. For the most part it's been a lonely winter. Weather sucks and people don't want to go out. I'm left alone in my humble abode left to stew in my own juices.

We have a little bit of a reprieve right now thankfully. Get some of that remaining ice off the ground. People are finally willing to get out of the house a bit more and so can I. It's time I finally say screw that and rejoin the world. Enough! It's over. Yeh I know there are some more bad weather days in store ready to hit us but at least the signs are there. Not that I've been completely idle while trapped with myself. I've been dealing with my shit. I mean, and a couple of you already know this, LITERALLY I've been dealing with my shit. And I shall describe that in the next couple posts coming soon to a computer near you.

My mucous glands on the eye (not the tear ducts, the glands that keep the eye moist), although open, were internally blocked up due to some irritation. So all this gunk built up inside causing a huge swell. They drained it, threw some shit in it and it mostly cleared up by the end of the day and nearly completely in a couple more. Ended up not being that big of a deal but was very annoying. Still had minor headache for a couple days. Only weird thing they said was that my pores were open and in the confusion the doc had to get a second opine.
