There's a hole in my retina, dear Liza, dear Liza...

So it turns out the reason I can't see out of my right eye (they're both kinda shit but the right one's definitely the worst) is because there's a hole in my retina and it's leaking blood. So I will be having eye surgery in 3 weeks. I've had problems for about a year now with retinal hemhorraging with the diabetes, but worse the last couple months. The retina specialist said I won't get my sight that's left the building back, but they'll prevent further vision loss so that's good. Always something, eh.
Pain's been returning in my spine, so kind of a not good week here, lack of sleep and all that. But on the plus side, I think I get my cast off my leg next week to trade in for an air cast, so that should help, plus I freakin' HATE casts so yay for it leaving! I've been cranky for the last 3 days. Listening to the new Matt Good album right now though, that's helping!! :) :) Hilarious that Mike went and bought this for me (hilarious to me, anyway, knowing as I do that Mike HATES Matt with a passion; his music and generally as a human being - he toured with him years ago and can't stand him)
:D
Been hanging with Mike quite a bit; good thing we're enjoying it as I won't be able to drive probably for about another month with the broken leg still and the eye stuff. I'm sure he's glad too as he was jokingly threatening to take me for a walk in the woods on uneven ground the other day hahaha (to break the other leg; he likes having the car lol)
