in 1998, my right eye suddenly developed a small blind
spot about 3 degrees right of center, and the eye
doctor could find absolutely no reason for it.

While reading, it would cover up about 1 or 2 letters
of the next word in the sentance.

It went away, gradually, over the next 2 years.
Since then, several similar spots, always near
center, in either eye, have appeared, but fortunately
none have stayed more than a few minutes.

Looking at something bright and blinking alot
seems to help them fade away.

Not sure what causes those...

This newsgroup is going to be an absolute scream to read in about
thirty years. Still, you have little to complain about. Pinko suffers
from ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION.

A couple years ago I was on an elevator with three dudes. One
complained about his gout before we got on. Then after we got on one
complained about his achilles tendos and the other one about his
heart. Then he turned to me.

I said "I suffer from Mental disabilities". That was by judging the
reaction the funniest thing I have ever said in the office.

No I don't. Many mornings I'll wake up with an erection -- that I wish
away so I can piss. What I do suffer from, on the two or three times a
year I will bother to try to do anything, is "premature ejaculation."
Not to mention "lack of drive," a common SSRI side-effect.

Exactly. I rest my case.

But no, I really don't want to bicker (not even public) about what
*exactly* is/was wrong with my/our sex life: it should suffice that I
happily admit that I suck in the sack and have for years now. (As all
the angstresses I've somehow "bedded" since 1995 will no doubt agree.)
"Performace apathy" would have fit when I bothered to perform at all.

What I do care about is my daily beer-&-nap. Trolls want so much to
hibernate in the winter y'know.

NOW GET OFF MY INTERNET!

Sleepily,
D.

P.S. I got my teeth cleaned today, and scaled and root-planed. Whee.
