11/21 Eye doctor. I get dilating eye drops, but apparently not those that make your eyes flood with so much light that you can only squint for hours. Everything seems normal, except as I get home, I cannot look at the sky from my apartment. It is a grey day, the first rainy day, in fact, in weeks. Everything must be so dark and grey that my dilated eyes feel right at home, except for that grey sky which is, apparently, by comparison, unbelievably bright.
