hey look guys, i'm a (post-surgery) pirate!!

look at me and my sexy post-eye-surgery eye patch!

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRR, fear my deadly "pirate hook"!

lol @ this is my best attempt to make an "arrrr" face, but i can't really move my face very much 'cause it pulls at the tape, and so i just kind of look... angry.

or maybe i'm not a pirate, and instead an evil super villain, stroking an invisible white cat menacingly.... hmm....

you know, really, i look way more like a cyborg than anything else! I HAVE A BIONIC EYE!

arrrrrrrrrrrrre you all better now?

rhythmdev9 on May 05 '10 at 2:14pm

SuperRyan on May 05 '10 at 2:14pm

He's better.

Stronger.

Faster.

in case anyone wants to see what it looked like last night before they cut it off, HERE'S A LINK!!

i figure a link is better than posting it here, just 'cause some people might think it's gross

Polyester Jones on May 05 '10 at 2:17pm

woah crazy!
speeeedy recovery please

juliejeremiah on May 05 '10 at 2:17pm

Ahh! What happened?

tracerbullet on May 05 '10 at 2:18pm

also, i never saw your original blog, so i thought you were just being a goof and wearing a funny eye patch. holy crap!

kevinwells on May 05 '10 at 2:23pm

it hasn't started hurting yet, but it certainly has started itching. and i'm stuck with this patch on until tomorrow morning at 10 when the doc is gonna remove it. laaaaaaaaaaaame.

Mya Jamila on May 05 '10 at 4:38pm

Man, you can't even remove your own eye patch? Sucky?
Also, was insurence kind enough to pay for this for you?

kevinwells on May 05 '10 at 10:23pm

i believe so, mya? my understanding is that i have something like a $100 deductible and then the rest is covered. or so i believe. i'll have to look into it. so far they haven't talked to me about price what-so-ever outside of the fact i had to pay $15 copay on my initial appointment with the surgeon dude (so second appointment overall). i sure hope this is all being covered!

also :( as the day has gone on, things have gotten worse and my eye now aches and itches and feels pretty damn unpleasant, and the rest of me kind of feels nauseous and tired and my head hurts :(

Chipmnk on May 05 '10 at 10:26pm

It looks like you have a colander on your eye, like you're straining out the water in your eyepasta.

Get well soon-ish!

shakethesheets on May 05 '10 at 10:28pm

oh dear, I hope your eye isn't draining eyepasta juice

that's so scary, kevin :((( *hugs*

please to be not in pain! I hope everything will be ok soon

kevinwells on May 05 '10 at 10:29pm

:) i was thinking the same thing, alwin

i also told a stranger in the elevator that it was a bionic eye made to mimic a fly's eye, and each little dot was a different camera that transmitted to a sensor grid unit strapped to my waist. said it was a class project. he believed me.

sleepyfeet on May 05 '10 at 10:42pm

haha kevin. :)

make sure you get pictures of it with the beard!!!

Mya Jamila on May 05 '10 at 10:44pm

Aw. I hope it's covered.
Also, class project = win.

the czar on May 05 '10 at 10:53pm

Hope you feel better soon. How long before you find out the results of the tests they do on what they removed?

oh man, i don't know and i really want to find out! that's one of the things i get to ask the surgeon guy tomorrow morning when he takes this eye patch off...

and right back atcha, Chris ;)

the czar on May 05 '10 at 11:09pm

I think when my wife had her needle biopsy done they got back to her in 3-4 days

mgill52 on May 05 '10 at 11:16pm

eyenoodles!

relax and recover quickly

noodlezoop on May 05 '10 at 11:24pm

whoa! that is some patch, man. congratulations?
yes yes Brian, I'm going to bed. this was compelling. the end.

feel better!

mike bautista on May 05 '10 at 11:29pm

Eye patches sure have changed these past few centuries.

applesforjonah on May 06 '10 at 1:04am

Sleep lots and get better!

whisper in water on May 06 '10 at 1:06am

Whoa that's so much more hardcore than I imagined an eye patch would be! Is it made of metal?!

PS I miss you!

Khol on May 06 '10 at 1:34am

Woah! I also totally thought it looked like a colander. It really does.
A friend of mine once accidentally shot her brother in the eye with a BB gun and he had to wear an eye patch for like, 6 months. But his was an old fashion one.
You look like a space pirate.

And yeah, I get well/recover soon, Kevin. And sleep and drink orange juice (I don't know how the OJ will help your eye but I like to drink it when I feel like crap after medical-ish stuff).

midi-chlorinated on May 06 '10 at 1:46am

Oh wow, that looks crazy. Hope you recover soon!

shakethesheets on May 06 '10 at 1:53am

orange juice will help with that pirate-induced scurvy!

Malcolm Man on May 06 '10 at 1:54am

oh man, get better soon Kevin!

Khol on May 06 '10 at 2:18am

That should have been, "I hope you* get...".

squatterjohn on May 06 '10 at 2:28am

Can you see out of it? That's pretty cool.
