who turned on the light?

 Today I had my second cataract surgery and it's amazing how much lighter and brighter everything looks. Of course the sunshine today may have had something to do with that.  I must say though, my TV  picture has never looked better.  It is a little weird though to put on glasses to read fine print and take off the glasses to watch TV.  The most fun though was being awake during the surgery.  They had told me that I would be awake during the left eye surgery three weeks ago but I really don't remember anything about it.  Today was different. Of course the eye was numb so I didn't feel anything but I do remember seeing the doctor's fingers up close to my eye.  I also heard and followed directions like look right, look left, look down and best of all look at the light.  I know the lights were all bright white because I saw them when I was wheeled into the room but during the surgery they were very colorful.  Red, green and yellow squares danced in front of my eyes.  It was positively psychedelic; the most fun surgery I've ever had.  As I may have mentioned before, I'm easily entertained.
