Enough with the snow, save my summer joy!

The title of my little video is 4 out of 12. This comes from 4 months out of the year that my friends and I enjoy playing softball under the 59th St. bridge. The rest of the months are occupied by a tennis club that puts up a huge bubble after the summer draws to an end.
However, a deal was struck recently with the Parks Dept and the Tennis Club to take over the 4 months during our softball period. Therefore, the Tennis Club will occupy the space year-round!

A fight as has been started to save the 4 months out of 12 for softball, baseball, soccer, kickball and just for the sake of it being opened to the public. So, here is a video that I made to pay tribute to our field of dreams.

Almost there!

I few more days has passed since the Lasik Surgery. By the way, I had what known as intralase lasik, that means it was a completely blade-free, all cutting was done by laser. So, the outcome is quicker recovery time, more precision, less chance of infection and a host of other benefits that only the eye doctor can describe.
I know you're saying blade-free? Yes, back in the day, they used an instrument to cut the flap.....OUCH! Go ahead, look it up on Youtube, you see what I'm talkin' about!

Oh, check the picture of the freedom from all the crap that I had to wear just to see, NO MORE!

Getting better and better

Oh my! Glad this thing is healing fast. Glad not to have glasses on but the coming and going blurriness is kinda disconcerting. Neverthemind, still glad to be rid of those eye goggles. Just look at the progress.

Well, here's a look at my eyes 3 days later. Not bad but vision is in a state of acclamation. In which I mean that the eyes are still trying to get its focus down. Here, let me try to give you an idea as best as I can through my eyes...literally. My vision is totally there but at certain times my eyes will get a little dry and blurriness will happen. It usually goes on with the right eye because it gets the most dry. The red marks on the white part of the eyes are the blown capillaries from the sucking during the intralase part of the surgery. In a sense, they're eye ball hickeys. Ha! As you can see from today's pictures it's less worse than the yesterday's.

I'm getting better every day, best part no more glasses!

Back home now and to see was totally unbearable. My eyes were so sensitive to light I was surprised that I was able to take these photos staring into the window. Holy crap that hurt. Even looking at the light for time from my cell phone was torture.

3 more days and soon I'll be blogging from the wifi plane. Heading to San Francisco to hang with the Bro and cousins. It's going to be an eating fest!

Second day after the new year, people not as coo coo as they usually are. I think the New Year drinking is still in their systems and that's what keeping them mellow. Love it!
