New Glasses
I picked up my new glasses today. I don't like them. They aren't as bad as the last 'new' pair I got, I can at least wear them without tearing up, but they feel too strong. I have no depth perception. And my left eye feels funny, like something isn't right. I may not have great vision with my old pair, but it's even vision, I don't feel like one eye is screwy. And the eye doctor wonders why I never come in? Why bother? What's the point of getting a new prescription and an new pair of glasses when the goddamn things don't feel right? I have no idea if I'm going to be able to get used to these things. Very aggravating.
Ryther is out with the boys tonight, so Himself and I got pizza and watched "1941". What a stupid movie, but it had some very funny stupid parts. I couldn't believe it was Steven Spielberg.
My cold has moved into my chest, so laughing isn't a good idea. It leads to coughing fits.
So my son's been experiencing harassment at school. And not just the usual shit, it seems some boys at his school think it's okay to sexually harass other kids. He transferred out of one class because of a group of kids who couldn't keep their hands off him, and now there are two more in another class that don't seem to understand what is and isn't appropriate behavior at school. Yeah, I'm so glad the legislature and the schools are doing something about bullying. Let me tell you, the kids still aren't getting the message. He tells me there is a girl from one of the shop classes that comes into his study hall instead of being in class. Gee, I wonder why that is? Girls still can get equal treatment in shop class. Wow, things have changed a lot in 25 years haven't they?
A woman I know came by the cemetery. She had been suffering kidney stones for a couple of years now. I asked her how she was doing, and she said she was better. She stopped drinking the water at her apartment. Apparently her building's water is well water, and since she stopped drinking it, her stones have stopped bothering her. Isn't that interesting. So much for the 'anti' bottled water campaign.
There is so much in the news I think about commenting on, but then I forget by the time I get here.
I built my pedestal for my sculpture. Actually right now I should be stripping wire for the whiskers so I can enter my sculpture in the art show. I still need to fill that paper out too. This weekend I have to get my cemetery stuff done up for the meeting. Ug. I also had the vacation pictures printed and decided I am going to put them in the scrapbook now, rather than trying to catch up with all the stuff before it which I may never do. I'm about three years behind on my scrapbooking.
Well, one thing with these new glasses, I'm not squinting. That's good right? I guess I won't find out if they are actually polarized until Tuesday when the sun comes out again.
That's about it for now.
