Seeing

My eyes are hazy. Like looking through dry contacts or dirty glasses. Or both. When

I put the OPTIVE drops in my eyes focus a little better. People keep asking me if it

was worth it. I tell them, so far yes and my eyes still need to heal completely to

see where they land vision-wise. I am a fuzzy 20/20 right now. I do have a little of

the light halos and glaring. I don't know what ghosting is but I though I had it

yesterday when I saw a being float by my left eye, but that might have been an

actual ghost.

I should have asked Echo Bodine, she sees ghosts. I saw her on Saturday at

Border's doing a book signing. I think she was positioned awkwardly in the store.

She was at a table right at the entrance to the checkout. I see the thought behind

the placement, to get the most people past her. But people walking to the checkout line won't

stop to chat or buy a book when they already have made their purchasing decisions.

And if there are people behind them in line, they will not want to hold up the line,

it is Minnesota.

I didn't talk to her. I think I wanted to. I read a book of her's. Maybe she

only had that one there or the others. I only read one. I didn't know if you could

talk to authors unless you were having them sign the book. No one else was talking

to her; I assume that was her brother at the table with her. I overheard one of the

Border's employees talking to her about Facebook.

I didn't know what to say to her. I smiled and said and awkward, "Hello" to

her brother/male companion as I passed.

Obviously she doesn't read minds.
