Ironing

I have to have another refloat! As of today I have had one LASIK procedure, and one refloat, a, sometimes, necessary treatment to smooth the eye. Well, what a joy to hear the eye flap remains a little folded, and they may have to refloat, resmooth reinvade my eye again!

My surgeon, sensing my stress, likened it to ironing a shirt, "sometimes Paul (s.o.b. thinks we're on a first name basis), the flap is like a wrinkled shirt and that shirt has to be ironed a couple times to get of the wrinkles."

Hmmm. Let's do a little experiment. Let's begin with a wrinkled shirt.


Oh no! So many wrinkles! Whatever shall we do? Let's begin to iron...


Let's take our time, really try to rid ourselves of those pesky wrinkles...


It worked! I took my time and smoothed the shirt.


Wait! I better tally the number of times I ironed the shirt. According to my calculations, it took one session. Huh...interesting...I guess in skilled hands a wrinkled shirt only needs to be seen once.

I hate you Dr. Bob (the name has been changed to protect the inept).
