I lacerated my eyeball and couldn't play in my Brahms concert. How are you?

Yeah, you heard me. I did something stupid with my contacts and I lacerated my eyeball, which caused me to be unable to play the concert on Sunday and miss two days of work so far this week. I can finally keep both eyes open for several minutes at a time, and wear glasses (that made me tear up something fierce until today). I may or may not go to work tomorrow, but I figure I'll be back up to scratch by Thursday and right as rain early next week.

In the meantime! Someone remixed my Last Minute Shopping (or Trials and Tribulations of the Pegasus Galaxy Mall)!

Summary: There is an Athosian adage that, translated roughly into Earthen speech, says that the brighter a truth, the more in the dark those who hold it are. Teyla had never been a huge believer in the statement, perhaps because she has always cast an even eye on nearly everything. But in the case of her teammates... she’s never seen a truer example.

SO AWESOME!!!! Even better when read to you by someone.

And now my eye hurts again so I'm going to lay on the couch and listen to Happy Feet 2. <3
