Having really, really bad eyes is a bummer.

Not only do I have to pay extra for my regular glasses to get them 'extra-high-density' - and no, no, that's not just vanity; trust me, I just went through this with Lenscrafters seekritly trying to give me a lower-quality material for my lens. After about two months of making gay-ass minor tweaks ("new frames? yeah, that'll help, try it") to glasses I could not fucking see from they finally bumped me to some higher-quality lens material. OH, BECAUSE 'ALMOST LEGALLY BLIND' ISN'T HIGH ENOUGH PRESCRIPTION HUH. Money-grubbing bastards.

Anyway, I also have to pay extra for my safety glasses for work. An extra "high prescription" fee, because, y'know, high-prescription glasses take more material. Of course it's not covered by the company - they only pay $80, which should've been enough to make the cost of the glasses very, very small. Jeff's paying $17. I'm paying $45.

I know, I know, it's not breaking the bank, but this is my bitch of the day. I'm kind of tired of something that I have no control over!! costing me more money because of genetic bad luck.

Just bitching.

y'know, I think I actually already have a tag for this.

You should, it would be awesome.

I feel like a junkie that relapsed. Dear GOD. I think part of my problem is that I am small, and any sort of chemical will in fact hit me hard. I mean, you've seen me after Jager. XD Now imagine me on an upper.

well, I'll admit that on bad days, when I am drinking coffee for the COMFORT FACTOR and end up consuming what is probably 6-8 cups of coffee total, I get the jitters too.

Then again, I'm much larger than you, so yeah, that's probably an equivalent serving size. XD

Oh thank god, salad helped. I had to quit the caffeine for my health, as it was giving me palpitations--really. The doctor YELLED at me. It was kind of funny.

You seem to have a tolerance. Like Irish people to beer.

I've certainly developed one over the years.

In other, random news, I am SO TOTALLY finally sending your CDs back tomorrow. I SWEAR!

I am imagining you downing expresso shots against people for money now. Oh my BRAIN.

OLRY?

HAHAHA. IF ONLY THERE WERE MONEY TO BE MADE.

I'd probably be better at actual shots, sadly.


Yes! I have a trip to the post office planned. Because if it ain't planned, I won't do it.
