Side effects include:

Clear vision.

It took the nurse two attempts to get a good IV going. I now have a small collection of medical wristbands. I went to sleep this morning at 7am not knowing of the huge mistake i just made.. I apologize for the typos in this post, I'm typing with one eye shut and I'm making it a point of not going baxk and spellchecjing. I had thought my cataract surgery for my left eye was tomorrow (wednesday) I was clearly mistaken. The hospital clalled my house wondering where i was. I had to double check my calendar in my phone and sure enought it was inuput correctly. I was scheduled to be there at 11:10 but I woke up at Noon. And since it was the day before my suppsed surgery, no one was available to bring me to the Vacaville Kaiser hospital. So I had to drive myself. When it was all over I clearly was not fit to drive so I had to get picked up... All in all the Doc told me the op went well.He had a little trouble stitching my eye back up. I noticed this when he started to vocalize his frustrations.

So i'm eyepatched again.. I should be sleeping but i cant. the anesthesia is wearing offf. I feel like i got hit in the face by Colonel Mustard, with the wrench, in the Conservatory.

4:30am

This is the story of Ruby. She's 24 years old and a sex worker. To supplement her income she also provides Angel services. In drug culture an Angel is someone who helps administer heroin and watches over them as they sleep. She does this cause its a hundred dollars extra. She says its just like babysitting. She's able to do this cause she's good at it. She knows how to use needles cause she has tons of experience with them. She's had diabetes for as long as she can remember. To her, insulin shots are as easy as popping a pill. When the client is sleeping, she tucks herself away in the corner of whatever sleazy motel room she happens to be staying in. She puts headphones on and listens to music as she rereads her favorite book: On The Road, by Jack Kerouac.

I need to finish writing this script. I just purchased the Canon T2i.. (for a project not my own, but they won't know I used it. And if they did, I'll just say it was to get to know the camera)..
