Nowadays everyone knows about gaslighting. It seems to have become a national sport in which everyone participates one way or the other. What was just said, wasn’t really said. Your ears must be clogged up. What you just saw, didn’t really happen. Your eyes must be cloudy.
Speaking of cloudy eyes, my vision took both an upwards and downwards trajectory. By 5pm, when I am wearing my contact lens, my eyes just can’t seem to focus. Yet, overall my vision is better so I was recently told.
Because of covid it has been so hard this past year seeing through my foggy lens. Rather late into the pandemic, I discovered there’s such an item as a declogger. You spray it on your lens and supposedly you fog up less.
Now, at this point in time, I can see through the fog. Obviously, I am speaking more abstractly about life and the surrounding fuzziness. I can more clearly now see people for the charade that they are. I can see more clearly some of the paths before me. Although, nothing is really clear and simple anymore. Even with a plain dish, I can get anaphylaxis if someone had just touched shellfish. Yes, I mixed up the whole story here.
Bottom line. Get an anti-fogger and be weary of even some of the simple things. Too ominous? Shrug.

So maybe the fact that my glasses would fog up whenever I wore a mask is symbolic of the fogginess of life in the time of COVID. But then again all I really needed was a tighter fitting mask.
