Weekend at Casey's
(while watching Andy Richter Controls The Universe on my PC)


-I went down to Portland this last weekend with Karly and spent it hanging out with friends and family. I saw Luke do a show and played Sing Star with Casey & Cassy on Friday, I went to Braidon's birthday party and saw Evan Almighty in a cheap theater with Cassy, Casey, McKenzie and their kids on Saturday, and saw Cody on Sunday before heading back home. Dad & Mernie weren't able to make it up here and Stacie, Katy, and Roldog didn't show up at Braidons party, but other than that I think I was able to see everyone I wanted to. I also scored an advance copy of Luke's album and a pack of NFL cheerleading cards from Jamie. All in all it was a good weekend.
 
 -Also, when I was down in Portland, I was hanging out with Meat (Matt) at Braidons party and my phone happened to ring. Meat heard my Shining Force II ring tone and immediately knew what it was. So far he's the only person who's ever heard been able to recognize my ring tone. It made me very happy.
 
 -I'm beginning to notice just how messed up my eyes are. Or, rather, how messed up one of them is. My left eye appears to work just fine, other than being sensitive to light. But my right eye is another story. When I close my left eye and only use my right eye, everything is blurry. Really blurry. Like, so blurry that I can't even read the words that I am currently writing without using my left eye. Also, all the "eye floaties" in my vision that annoy me and give me headaches are in my right eye. I did some simple tests on my own with magnifying glasses and mom's reading glasses and they don't seem to help the vision in that eye at all. It's pretty concerning, so I need to figure out about seeing an eye doctor. I think I need to go through the SCCA so that I get in touch with an optomitrist that knows about treating people who've been trhough what I've been through.
 
 -My left leg is still getting better. I've been doing more stretches with it and it's definately getting more and more flexible. Also, my coumadin level was 2.8, within the target range of 2.0 to 3.0, so they let me go two weeks instead of one week before the next visit. Yay! There's $30 I won't have to spend!
 
 -I still need to wear my compression stocking, as I've found that my left foot gets kinda swollen if I don't. The nurse at the Protime clinic said that's because the circulation in that leg still isn't good so blood will flow down to the foot and not be able to flow back out. It's not very comfortable, so I need to wear it as much as I can.
 
 -I wore my compression stocking when I was down in Portland, and it gave my friends something funny to laugh about. I was talking to Cassy and we decided to come up with a snappier, more manly name for it than "compression stocking". We came up with "mantyhose". So spread the word. Kyle wears mantyhose.
 
 -I got a bill from the SCCA for $3000 the other day. I was all pissed off about it and I called them up to setup a payment plan, but they told me that they're still not done processing it through insurance, so I won't have to pay the whole thing (Yay!). I don't know how much I'll have to pay, perhaps nothing when all is said and done. I'm just glad that I don't have another bill on my plate. Hell-yeah-lujah!
 
 Later,
 
 Kyle
