Opt School or a house?
Electricians make more cash.
Too late to drive truck?
As a mid-career optometrist still 20 years from any kind of retirement, I often wonder if I made the right decision. I’ve had to do some electrical work on my 1960 house (because that’s the kind of house an optometrist can afford) and really enjoyed it. Also I really like driving, so I probably should have been a trucking electrician or an electrical trucker.

I shine light in eyes,
as a watchman for disease.
Patient might punch me.
I get photophobic patients sometimes, so this haiku is for them. If you liked this one, read more Optoblog poetry.

Fly open. Zipper Broken.
Eyes elevated. Me Mortified.
Seventeen bucks at Division 1 saves the day.
True story, BTW.
