Apologies for the lack of a post last night, but there was a slight incident involving an overexuberant pet cat, her claws, and my eye, which necessitated a trip to the ER. Nothing serious — vision is fine, and within a few days I should be back to normal. In the meantime, however, I give myself 2 out of 10 on the Jonah Hex disfigurement scale:


hex score 2/10hex score 2/10hex score 2/10hex score 2/10hex score 2/10hex score 2/10hex score 2/10hex score 2/10hex score 2/10hex score 2/10

    What’s the differential diagnosis for a bleeding eye and facial scratches?

    That scale is troublesome because it brings out my competitive side and has me wondering
    how to register a higher score.

    Makes me wonder where other folks register on it. Joker? Doctor Doom? The Shroud? Hex himself?

    Did you get an eyepatch? I remember the time I had my eye taped over (corneal scratch) on the day we were due to meet an acquaintance for dinner. I had to lean on my husband the block or so that we walked from where we parked, due to not being able to move the good eye without provoking discomfort in the bad eye, so that I looked not only like a person with a stupid eye patch, but a drunk person with a stupid eye patch.
