I call do-over on today.
So yesterday was kind of a crap day. But I was optimistically certain when I went to bed that things would get better, tomorrow is another day, yaddah, yaddah, and all that.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA....no.
This morning I managed to snap my glasses in half. Right in the middle of the bridgepiece which makes them pretty damn unfixable and unwearable. Without my glasses, my vision is horrific. As in everything is a giant blur of color unless it's right up next to me. In fact, my laptop screen at the moment is about two inches from my nose as I type, and I'm still squinting.
And my company doesn't offer vision insurance as a benefit. My health insurance will grudgingly pay for a vision exam every two years, but not the glasses and my employers (for the first time in my professional career) won't spring for extra insurance that might. Fucking shitty bastards. Which means I've really reluctantly taken a personal day from my tiny, precious, rapidly dwindling store of days off and I'm desperately trying to find the absolute cheapest offer for glasses that can be turned around today so that I can, you know, go to work for the rest of the week without emptying out my bank account. Which when it comes to glasses in my particular prescription is probably going to be impossible. *pounds head against desk repeatedly*
You know, seriously, I'd just like one good thing to happen today. Just one. I really need that today.
Or booze. I could use booze today too.
