It's no new thing, but... I had a bit of a panic attack this morning due to my lack of night vision. I got up (on my stinkin' day off!) to get ready for work and it took me longer than usualto get everything together... To explain, I have been getting up at 5:30am every day for work - but my fiancee doesn't normally get up until around 10:00am. So out of courtesy, I try to make as little noise as possible and not turn on any lamps. Anyway, I had been getting pretty good at finding my things and getting dressed in the (near) dark. I usually use my phone as a "light" of sorts with which to guide my morning rituals but sometimes its just inconvenient or not necessary. So this morning I'm trying to get ready for work and I just can't find ANYTHING I'm looking for, despite my lenghty search. On top of that, I'm bumping into things, stepping on things (and my dog!), and tripping over everything possible. Just not my day I guess...
I keep thinking things will get better, as far as adjusting to no-sight at night and missing a portion of my peripherals... Maybe some day it will. But for now I guess I have to keep searching for those routines and/or tools that make the dark bearable...
It's another day at work... And its technically supposed to be my day off. And here I thought work couldn't possibly make me any more depressed! Either way, I have a few things to look forward to... I'm going to look into getting some free "repairs" done to my PS3, going shopping for my super-bright-compact-flashlight (if it exists), and hopefully picking up my mail from the old house. Oh, sure... it doesn't SOUND exciting.. Okay, fine. Its really not. But its all i have, dangit!
