DR Ron, I’m glad to hear your cataract surgery journey is going smoothly.  I kept a pretty low profile during the between time because my depth perception was off.  No driving until my eyes matched!

I was told to take caution, but my right eye was so much worse than my left that I have a good balance of vision.

The real "trip" is how bright and vivid colors are when I close my left eye and see how much improvement the cataract surgery gave me.  When I close my right eye, there is a considerable difference...rather like watching a film in which color has been muted and has bluish or tannish cast in every scene.

Focusing isn't good at all yet.  I can read with my left eye and both eyes work well with reading glasses for now.  The end result is intended to free me up from wearing glasses at all.

Oddly, I don't remember what I did in the in-between time, but I believe I drove only in the daytime, and probably for nothing much more adventurous than going to the grocery store. I definitely avoided night driving.

Title: Re: THE NEW WORLD SYMPHONY
Post by: elmore3003 on November 16, 2024, 07:39:13 AM
The chili is made, and I'm ready to begin the Gypsy work. I've been reading my friend Josh's book aboutby & Shire, so I've been listening to The Sap of Life this morning. Now I want to hear their Cyrano.

I worked with Maltby around 1985; I didn't like him. I met David Shire backstage at Closer Than Ever, and I really liked him.

Keith keeps the news and political shows on all the time.  I listen to some and try to ignore others, which isn't all that difficult since I have to struggle to hear them.

Tonight I paid attention durning an interesting interview with journalist and Noble Peace prize co-winner Maria Ressa.  She is an interesting person, and wrote a memoir called How to Stand Up to a Dictator.

There's a 90-minute documentary about The Moderns on this disc. I don't think so. But I may watch a little of it.
Title: Re: THE NEW WORLD SYMPHONY
Post by: bk on November 16, 2024, 08:24:34 PM
But the price is right at Tom's. If you just have the cheeseburger sans bacon, it's six bucks. I had zucchini fries with it, but they were not as good as Astro Burger's and I didn't eat most of them.
