Never been fond of the style of posting personal information, but here is why I’ve gone on hiatus:

Asked on a date (October 11th). Went on a date (October 15th). Was promised a second one (October 15th). Then, not (October 18th). Then, I was (October 18th). Then, not (October 19th). Now, I’m done (October 20th).

Tried to care. Still, not.

Saw the eye doctor (October 14th). Told my vision was uncorrectable, possible genetic defect (October 14th). Saw a retinal specialist (October 19th). Told I had one of two genetic defects, both of which causes inevitable loss of vision to a degree between mild and serious (October 19th). Had some eye exams (October 25th). Received test results (November 12th). Been diagnosed with Cone-Rod Distrophy, or Retinitis Pigmentosa.

Probably going to lose what limited sight I had to start.

. . .

Feelings of joy come few and far between, nowadays. Shouldn’t complain, things could be worse. Still, am.

Lacking meaning, purpose, worth, value. Lacking drive, as well.

Such is Life.
