TurnDaddy 323 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 " Dear Journal....So yesterday was the great solar eclipse for North America. Having an off day, I decided to travel to Carbondale, IL where the longest duration of totality was to take place. Over two minutes worth! Anyways, I didn't have any special glasses and figured my normal sunglasses would work. I didn't heed the warnings you hear every minute leading up to the big day..."DONT LOOK DIRECTLY AT IT!", "YOULL BURN YOUR RETINAS!", well I thought that was hog wash, so as the eclipse started, I glared up with my sunglasses and instantly regretted my decision. I ended up in the hospital. Both retinas burned. Severely. This sucks. You're wondering how I'm even typing this out? Easy, talk to text. Anyways, I told Riga about it and they are not happy, as I would expect. Someone mentioned a guy in Hells Kitchen, New York who is blind but can do amazing things...I might have to search out this Matt Murdock if I want to continue my career. Blind Niko out.
