The goggles, they do nothing...
by Scott Horowitz on August 3, 2006
On, July 7, I had LASIK Vision Corrective Surgery. On, July 8, when I woke up I could see... it was awesome.
The pre-op and post op of the surgery took longer than the actual process. No pain, the worst part is smelling your eye burning.
My eye was healing real well, but of course, I do stuff to fuck it up. On Sunday, I was assembling boxes I bought from Staples for my move. As I was seperating the perferated edge, the box snapped up and I hit myself square on the left eye. It was very blury, and I had trouble seeing. Got really scared, so i decided to go to the emergency on call doctor.
Luckily, I only scratched my cornea.. nothing major, just had to be put on an anti-biotic to prevent infection, but it was a scary experience.
My dad who waited for me got to see the whole surgery on a TV screen. I wanted a copy of it, but they don't record the process.

So, uh, what does a cooking eyeball smell like, anyway?

Smells a bit like burning plastic actually... I still want that DVD

Roommate Problems
So, let's talk about my life. I moved to Jersey City, because a close friend (and my roommate from college) was going to be teaching here, and it would not be a bad commute for me to work. Teaching didn't work out for him, and now he's looking for ajob. Go »Viva La Liberacion
Today is Liberation day. I brought a suit case to work with me and am moving into my new apartment after work today. Moving the rest of the furniture this weekend, I can't wait. Go »My Boss
So, I've been at my new job for a little over 4 months now. I have to say I am very happy there, and one of the main reasons is my boss Jim. The main thing I like about Jim is the fact that when I do something good or important, he'll say "Good Job" or "Thanks a lot".

So, let's start at the beginning. I flew out from LaGuardia airport in NY. Since, I used mileage I had crappy flights and had a connection in Boston. Go »Roommate Solution
So, the roomie didn't take the job, so we're stuck together for the near future.. Go »

I wonder what kinds of jokes laser-surgeons hear. "Can you take that tattoo of my ex-girlfriend's name off my cornea?"
