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.

I think about eye surgery sometimes. Times like this, for example.

It mostly freaks me out because it's only been around for what, 10 years?, and everyone knows your eyes change when you get older, so what happens to your LASERED eyes when you age? Do they get WORSE? Do you go blind? Do you have to do it again? No one knows, because the surgery just hasn't been around enough.

If I KNEW that I wasn't screwing my old age, though, I'd be doing it next week.

Good enough reason, but anything that is cutting edge is never going to have a long enough track record to make it a 100% sure thing.

I guess it just depends on how much you'd like to be able to roll over in the morning and see what time it is without getting 2 inches from the clock. Stuff like that.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

See, that's the exact kind of shit I'd like to be able to do. See the clock from bed. Be able to shave my legs in the shower without missing spots because I can't fucking see my own feet let alone tiny little hairs. XD

One of these days I'll just be gone for a day or two and come back not-blind.

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Haha. You mean you don't wear your glasses to shower? :O

I'm pretty sure it's outpatient anyway, so you'd need someone to drive you home. Unless you are going to cuba to get it.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

There is no goddam way I'd let somebody in Cuba poke my eyes with a laser, thanks. XDD

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Actually supposedly the medicine there is quite good if you can afford to pay for it. This wouldn't be the type of doctor some poor cuban dude would go to.

And it's just a laser, what harm could it do? :)

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

I guess I can get in trouble for saying stuff like that now, can't I? XD

Haha. Just a laser. CUTTING MY EYEBALLS.

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

I believe its technically burning your eyeball, not cutting it. I have been wrong before though...

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

No, technically you're right. But it reshapes your eye, so I think of it as a cutting, because uh what happens to the nasty parts of eye that it cuts off?

We really need to change the subject. ;)

I'm listening to the Justin Timberlake cd, does that make me gay?

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure. Are you attracted to Justin Timberlake?

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Well he is a pretty good looking guy. I guess I would be more jealous of his looks then turned on by them.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

Hmmm. What are your feelings on the buttsex?

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Depends on which end I'm on. :P
Oh, and not with a dude kplsthx.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

Unless it is at the Halloween party.

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Even if I do have gay buttsex at the halloween party (which I won't!), You don't get to watch, or participate.

Actually check that, since it won't happen anyway of course you can participate!

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

What if I don't want to participate but DO want to film?

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Filming ok, NOT participating NOT ok.

Your turn to change the topic I think...heh.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

So... ponies?

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

What about them?

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

IT'S A CORGI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

They are a ridiculous looking dog, but that doesn't mean they aren't cute.

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

THEY ARE SO FREAKING ADORABLE

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Haha well most puppies are. Too bad they have to grow up!

[first-seventhe.livejournal.com]

They are even cute when they grow up too.

[hilldo.livejournal.com]

Between your dog being small, the height of the christmas tree and the angle of the picture, you and your brother look like giants!

But yes your dog was cute.
