Kevin Standlee: Fandom Is My Way of Life

When I injured my face in a fall a couple of years ago, I drove the eye doctors at Addenbrookes crazy. Apparently, my eyes don't actually talk to each other, and probably never have. Sometime in my early childhood my brain developed a coping mechanism. I see out of one eye or the other as needed. That must be why I never looked like I was aiming for the shot I intended to make when playing pool. My right eye has always been weaker than the left, but it didn't cross noticeably unless I was very tired or ill. It is far more obvious now, and I tend to be very self-conscious about it.
