Four Eyes
On a week of holiday from work atm. I worked through xmas, with the promise of rewarding myself with a week off as soon as was practical. And now we are here.
As part of the week off, my mother had organised us both appointments with her optometrist (an old family friend). I had started to notice that one of the whiteboards at the back of the office was getting harder to read, and in recent months I've been getting some pretty nasty headaches at work (which I initially thought were caffeine-related but managed to rule that out).
As a result, from next Thursday I will be wearing corrective lenses. Mum was right, the assistant there was really helpful at picking frames, and I'm getting transitions lenses since these will be glasses for distance, not reading.
I'd known since high school that this day would come, but I'm still a little bummed about it. Although I can still see ok, this will sharpen things up a bit and reduce eye strain. And the lack of headaches will be welcome.
The rest of the week has been spent so very productively. Finally hit 74 last night! DDRX arrived today at Replay. Wrestling has been watched, and a How I Met Your Mother marathon kept me up til 6am yesterday. So. Very. Productive.
This weekend shall be a visit to Game On before it closes. If you haven't been, this is your last chance to see it before it leaves Brisbane. Anyone who's had an interest in video games at some stage in their lives should check it out.
