Reality Adjustment

(100 wordish)

It is always tough adjusting to a new reality. I mean, I really really like that I can see now, but every once in a while I catch myself going to “adjust” the contacts I’m not wearing. Or putting my glasses on out of habit. Or, worse yet, in the morning, opening my eyes and not expecting to be able to see and going through this panicky moment of “Oh God! I slept in my contacts again!” (Which used to be a sure-fire not good way to start the day.) My brain has still not accepted that I can see.
