So update to the eye patch saga - my bf came to pick me up for dinner last night wearing a pirate hat. Love his sense of humour. I then wore the pirate hat to work this morning, just to really lean into this. It's been a great laugh, thankfully my eye is already feeling much better and the hat is now just a decoration on my desk.

Fortunately! Or else not only will you have to wear a pirate hat. You'll have to surgically replace your left hand with a hook.

Q: Why is pirating so addictive? A: They say once ye lose yer first hand, ye get hooked!

If people ask what happened you should say you lost an eye in a game of gin rummy. Eye eye.

So far I've claimed shark attack, Toby finally losing his cool and also just "Dragon."
