Niko is Cartoons

I swear, if it’s not one thing, it’s another. Roughly a month ago, my eyes started to really go berserk and I went and had some tests done and everything, but things have been getting really bad. I definitely can’t wear my contacts anymore; I can only have them in for a couple of hours and my eyes start to go buggy and I get bad headaches. I’ve been sticking with glasses, because when I need to read something close, I can usually just lift them up and read it. Now, I can barely see stuff close when lifting up my glasses, and if I try to wear glasses and see it, I have to hold it too far away before it’s actually in focus.  It’s crazy.  I don’t even know if any of that makes sense.  I can’t really…look at screens of any kind for more than an hour now, too, without getting a headache or my vision going blurry, and even when I stop and just try to go do other things, my vision stays blurry for a long time. I finally go for surgery relatively soon (September 24, I think).  Not laser…corrective surgery, but surgery on the muscle of my right eye.  So my vision will still suck afterwards, but I just won’t have an occasional lazy eye and double vision.  As someone who uses computers a lot for both work and leisure, it’s very frustrating, and kind of frightening, too.
Animation-wise, I’m going to hopefully finish up that Mega Man tribute video either tomorrow or the next day (depending on how much I can do at a time).  I also got a homebrew DS cart thing and put both a storyboarding and an animation applications on there. I tested out the animation today, but unfortunately, I started…not saving often, so the last few seconds of the animation were lost.  But you can see it here if you want.
