Alas we will never meet due to cruel fate.

This guy just sent me a smiley and 'Hi'. Unfortunately he's almost 5000 miles away.

I don't do "either type" of facials so I'm good. I should probably clarify about the sex. The optometrist said it should be ok. But then she said I shouldn't stand on my head for one, maybe two months. So I guess that means no sex after all. 😢😢 😜😜😜😜😜😜

Well my almost brother-in-law had the right idea after all. While the world may not be Wizard of Oz bright, things definitely appear brighter than before. I didn't notice until I compared the vision between my uncorrected eye and my "surgerized" one. Looking at my HD-TV, the whites seem to have a blue halo around them. It's very cool. And again while there is a mild blur, the TV picture is much clearer than what I see in the uncorrected eye even with my glasses on. The eye shield I have to wear while sleeping to prevent me from rubbing the eye while I'm asleep is the pits though.

Just because the pictures have been uploaded recently, doesn't guarantee that the pictures are current. It's always possible to upload old pictures. I have no idea about this guy either way -whether he has or hasn't done that.

Oh and I can read closed captioning much more easily now. But they had to put a (long distance) monofocal lens in because there's something abnormal about my retina. The doctor said a I needed as much light as possible hitting my retina, and a multifocal lens wouldn't work as well. So now I can't read up close with my right eye. I'm supposed to try to get some non prescription readers. But I'll need to take out the lens on the left side until I have that eye done. Or get a monocle until then. Who knew I'd need a tuxedo too?

Update Time!! It's post-op day #2. I had a good report from the doctor yesterday. They had me see an optometrist rather than the ophthalmologist yesterday. They hadn't told me they did that. My eyes still feel a bit irritated and blurry. I'm not sure how much of the blurriness is due to surgery and how much from the drops as I'm not supposed to rub the drops out my eyes. Right now I take one drop of Ketorolac (an NSAID) once a day. One drop of a steroid three times a day. And one drop of an antibiotic 4 times a day. An acquaintance of mine had all his drops mixed together. I wish mine were that way. I was wondering about sex. Googling the question said something about two weeks. I asked the optometrist about it. She seemed to think it was ok now. But on another question about general activity she said I shouldn't have my head upside down. So I guess I won't be able to have sex for another month or two after all. 😜😜😜 My almost brother-in-law said after his surgery -it was like going from Kansas to the Land Of Oz. Maybe his cataracts were thicker. I was mainly having trouble seeing words, as well as trouble focusing on things near and far. I hadn't noticed any change in color intensity. Of course if it happened gradually you wouldn't. But I don't notice much difference in color intensity now. @wsc and @JamesB, and any others who want to chime in-did y'all notice any significant changes in your perception of color?

Was that a yes or a no to Macroeconomics?

I never remember. Is that micro- or macro-economics?

Please give us a little more detail Inquiring minds would like to know. On the second occasion was it like a bad day at the office/ he was tired and couldn't 'rise to the occasion?' Or was it worse and he was threatening, seemed high/drunk, or etc?

I don't think so. Apparently in this case you get some unenlightened views (I'm not saying I'm totally enlightened either), but you don't even get to know him biblically as a consolation for them.

The overnight seems like the best deal if it's over 6 hours.

I see a couple of Facebook posts-one from 9 years ago and one from a few months back suggesting it might be real.

I just got this phone call. They left a voicemail as I didn't answer the phone. "Hello I am calling on behalf of the Arizona Department of Health to conduct an important study on the health of us residents We will call again in the next few days to conduct the interview If you have any questions please call us toll free at 844 6044394 at your convenience Thank you"

Thank y'all for all the good wishes. I think it's gone well. In fact--- My (almost) brother-in-law described it like going from Kansas to Oz, but I haven't noticed that yet. I'll just be happy to be able to see the road and street signs at night-not too mention closed captioning on the TV. Right now my eye is watery. And I can't rub it. So I don't actually know what the vision there is actually like. My brother and mother took me to the surgery place. We were probably there an hour or less. We went to lunch afterward. But on the way back to my Mom's I started getting a sick headache. And I went to sleep for about 4 hours. I seem ok now. 1st follow up is tomorrow (Wednesday). Wish me luck.

I knew it meant something like this in Spanish. If the escort in question actually wrote his ad copy, then I should be praising his English skills, for they are a million times better than my Spanish.

I'm just glad the guy is 'complacent.' (It's in his ad copy). Think how awful it would be if he were all riled up.

On my right eye. I'm minorly apprehensive. But I'm sure everything will go well. I haven't asked my doctor yet.-I will- how long I'll have to refrain from sex. I hope this doesn't end up 'screwing' (see what I did there 😝) with my busy social calendar. (I'm obviously joking. I think the last time I had 'relations' was two weeks ago.) Please send healing vibes.

My Mom made it too. I think it was the sausage pizza in a green box. She would add extra mozzarella to it. It was delicious!!

His ad seems to be expired now. I met him for massage once years ago. As I recall, I was flying from Austin to Dallas on Southwest. Southwest had an extremely long delay. I had always wanted to meet him. I called him from the airport, and he was available. I'm pretty sure it was a good massage. But what I remember most was how friendly he was. I still vaguely remember some of our conversation about Chinese restaurants. He told me his family owned one but not in Austin. I also remember that years ago he escorted. I can almost picture his private website. Yellow was the overriding color on it. I hope he is doing well.

This is a Rentmasseur ad. Does he escort also, or should this have been placed in The Spa section?

I've noticed that if I'm on the Rent.Men version of Rentmen and try to look at the Reviews with Hide Me, it doesn't seem to work. Anyone else have this problem?

Could I interject to add that even though obscured, from what little I can see, @PhileasFogg looks like a pretty dang handsome guy?

On Rentmasseur reviewer ExitSL wrote "He is a classically, non-classically, more than handsome." I don't really understand the wording. But my sense is that he thinks Marco is extremely handsome.

Apparently so. 😝😝
