I am getting nervous. I recently noticed that my vision is getting progressively worse. At first I thought it was because the insomnia is so intense and I have a hard time focusing on things when I have little to no sleep. But now I'm starting to realize that when I am at the back of the classroom with a student, trying to point to something on the board, I'm having a hard time seeing the board. Or if I look over their shoulder while they're sitting down at their desks, I can't really see their paper too well. And when I'm at restaurant and the menu is on the wall, I have to get pretty much on top of the menu to read it.

It's not that I'm nervous about my eyes getting bad...it's that this is another thing I have to pay for and I'm not liking the sound of that. About three years ago I went to the eye doctor to get my eyes checked out and he wrote me a script, but it was just too expensive at the time. I've adjusted pretty well because I am mostly near-sighted in my right eye so I just need to get close to things. I know they are way worse than they were before.

And yeah. The glasses I wear aren't real. They're like a piece of jewelry that a lot of people have commented on for some reason or another, so I wear them from time to time.

Ugh. I can't afford 50 bucks right now for an appt and another 150 for frames.
