A drive-by post

Hi!

I'm back in school. I'm taking a critical thinking and writing course through the philosophy class. We'll learn some basic tool for identifying and analyzing arguments, such as what the basic fallacies are. Then, we'll write on bioethical issues, and conclude with a term paper.

My other class is elementary statistics, again. I'm tackling it for the second time. I had dropped it when I left college last March.

I'm adjusting my schedule too. My two classes are back-to-back, with a 10 minute walk in between, without any bathroom break! Aah! This morning, I'm going to try getting in to an earlier class which will let me have a long study break between both classes.

Here is a selfie of me in my new glasses. I have cataracts now. Gads-I didn't expect that. My optometrist estimates that I will have cataract surgery sometime next year, based on how rapidly one of them is progressing. That's scary. I don't want to have Surgery On My Eyes! However, my left eye is almost useless. I can't even read the very largest letters on the top of the Snellen eye chart in that eye. My left eye has drifted to the left so far that I can't pull it back in, giving me a rather spooky look. Cataract surgery will go a ways toward correcting that solution.
