At grad school in Vermont. So much snow from below and so many fluorescents above make photokeratitus inevitable. That, and too little sleep, makes my orbits sore.
Everyone around me is oblivious to what I'm going through. A few know that I can't see who they are and take steps to fill me in. Otherwise I'm shy to out myself. I packed binoculars, but seem to forget to have them in pocket as I flit from presentation to presentation, unable to see anyone's work.
Why do I do this? Why don't I? Perhaps the pain of seeing is too great today. So in my seat I shut my eyes and try not to fall into a much needed sleep.
