So my blog vacation will

So my blog vacation will be starting a little prematurely.

I put my glasses down today, and when I picked them up they were broken. No reason, I didn't sit on them or anything -- just broken.

Prior to 9 months ago, I usually wore contacts. So I only had the one pair of glasses. But contacts don't do so well on a construction site, so I've been wearing my glasses since September. My contacts were in dry dock, so to speak. So now, with neither contacts or glasses, I'm finding out what it's like to be blind. Oh, I can move around, but I can't read, can't see the television, can't make out faces or shapes unless they're big. It's a damn good thing I touch type, 'cause that's how I'm writing this now. If there are any typos, I apologize; I can't see 'em.

So until I get some vision back, I'm afraid I'll be off ; I'll probably be back on some time tomorrow. Meanwhile, go read some of the fine blogs at the side there, and I'll just nip off and quietly drink myself insensible in the hiatus.
