unglued Splinken *hands out invitations to her pity party* went to the optometrist today. he said: "you have a demon in your cornea" my astigmatism has doubled. my contact lenses will cost 400 dollars. i do not have 400 dollars. so i burst into tears in the optometrist's office. today was the first day i have ever wished i was someone else. 000818 ... Brad Don't feel bad. When I went to the optometrist not only has my astigmatism worsened a little bit, but the doctor got this grave look on his face and informed me that i have something abnormal in my eye and he wants me to keep checking back regularly to make sure i don't do something crazy like go blind. My mom says he always overreacts... but it was still a bit unnerving! 000818 ... klairchen Oh my godness! You poor childe(s). 000818 ... The Schleiffen Man eye doctors, schmye doctors... i don't wanna hear a thing until you've had a colonoscopy, and that's the bottom line cause stone cold says so! 000818 what's it to you? who go blather from
