i hope my new glasses work. they arrived yesterday but the shop is closed today. my eyes are dry and itchy and my brain feels dessicated. there are dark rings under my eyes, or maybe it's the light in the old medicine cabinet mirror. i'm blinking and straining to see. all the senses are critical, but some of them atrophy, it would really be hard to not see. what would i do? i couldn't walk the dog. i'd have to get a dog to walk me.
