I had my visit with the eye doctor today. My vision has always been terrible and has grown progressively worse for years, so these annual appointments stir up plenty of anxiety -- I always have this fear that I'll end up blind, or my retina will pop off or something

dude, that's fucked up.

I know!! It was kinda scary.

Your new icon is perfect, haha. (And I like that movie, too.)

What blew me away was how nonchalant and unconcerned they were about having this conversation. Just like it was nothing! It was pretty disgusting, but I was too riled up to think of anything clever to say.

!!! What a conversation to overhear! I'm sure it was horrible to listen to, but it was very funny to read.

Hope all's well.

Thanks! I couldn't believe my ears -- I forget that people like that really do exist. The interesting thing was that they dogged on Bush for a while; I would have really expected them to be right-wingers. Come to think of it, I'm really embarrassed that they're Democrats, but what can you do?

The exorcist or shrek?

I got caught right there. It's going to be in my head all night. The exorcist or shrek? And yes. Aint got no sex in it. I have a far easier time with the REST of the conversation because at least it's consistent. But the exorcist or Shrek? Holy damnation.

The exorcist or shrek!

It boggled my brains to hear it. They had been complaining about the disgraceful filmmakers who have all those filthy acts in their movies. I guess that's why she made the no-sex-in-it remark. But even STILL!

Wow, that conversation went from strangely compelling to scary and offensive in record time!

[dexterjerome]

First I glanced up; then I glared. Couldn't help it. I couldn't believe what I was hearing! As I walked away, the man said, "Welp, looks like we drove that one off," as the woman continued her fire & brimstone prayer.
