I play with pretzels:
also, today I went to the optometrist and got contact lenses for the first time. i'm wearing them now, and they feel pretty weird. I still feel like I have something in my eye. and I don't feel like they're prescription lenses at all. I kinda feel like I just don't have my glasses on, and my eyesight is just as bad.
but yayayayayyyy, because now: I get to wear sunglasses and I can read and watch tv with my head on a pillow. I don't have to worry about how my skin is allergic to, oh, EVERYTHING, so my glasses frames won't be a concern. I won't have glare anymore. and I can experiment with eye shadows, yaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAY!
as far as wedding planning goes: we set a date, booked a venue (which has the food and booze), I'm trying to handle bridesmaids with grace, and fil has actually been a pretty awesome fiancé in terms of helping me plan. what has been way better is figure out stuff about buying a house, which we're now thinking won't happen until next year. i'm mourning the loss of the up-to-eight-grand that Obama was just going to fucking HAND us if we'd bought this year, but it's smarter this way. we'll have more money. our credit scores will be totally bitchin'. and who knows, maybe first-time homebuyers will still get something next year.
"hai govt, gold star plz, i boght house" "um no thx, i hate u" <--- we all know this will happen
