so my vision insurance kicked in at the beginning of this year, and i so FINALLY got my eyes checked today. my glasses should be in on the 19th, and i'm getting some trial contacts on monday. (they were going to give them to me today but apparently my prescription for my right eye is so strange they don't have it in stock.) i get a week to test them out and see how they're working for me, and then i can buy some at that point. considering my aversion to anything near my eyes, i'm not sure they'll be my main method of vision correction, but i'd like to have the option. the optometrist said i'll see clearer with glasses anyway. but the keywords here are "be able to see". i'm so stoked.
mike is doing well, besides the fact that he's been sick forever. but he seems to be in a very safe place, and that makes me feel much better. i miss him tons, but i hear from him every 3 or 4 days. somedays it's hard, mostly when i run out of things to keep me occupied. but most of the time, i'm dealing quite well. i've adjusted nicely. i'm not saying it's easy, but i'm saying it's possible. if you love someone, you do what you have to do. and that's what i'm doing. i've sent out two letters and two packages already (one package for valentine's day) so hopefully he starts receiving the stuff i've been sending.
school started, and i believe that will keep me quite busy. though i only have 4 classes, i'm doing to have a decent workload, and i definitely have to write a number of decent sized papers. i'm excited about the courses though...they all seem really interesting, and i have some badass professors.
let me know if you want to hang out. i've been told i suck at keeping in touch with people. if you're one of those people, i'm sorry. but it's not you, i swear.
