-Am I the only one who does this? Lately at night I've been putting my right contact in the left contact holder and my left contact in the right contact holder. Then when I put them on in the morning, I've got the wrong contact in each eye. I've started catching on (obviously since I'm posting about it), but I don't know how many contacts I've

Hi there, so sorry I wasn't very pleasant Wednesday night. I'm usually alot more socical. I just wasn't feeling well at all :( I wanted to tell you what a pleasure it was to meet you in person and I hope you don't mind me adding you to my friend's list? Gena :)

It was very nice to meet you last week. I had seen you around Terrie's lj for ages. I've added you as well. I had been wondering where you had disappeared that evening. I thought you were coming back and maybe you did. We left around 11:00, I think.

I had planned on coming back but my tummy was hurting so bad I just couldn't go :( Apparently it is some kind of virus. My little guy came down with it yesterday. I sure hope I didn't give it to you or Terrie.

Thanks for the add :)

Thanks for your concern, but I feel peachy! :P I feel for you though. Stomach viruses are definitely not fun.

You're insane. Hairspray was amazing.

Hah! I had wondered if saying that would get a response out of you!;) I guess it's just a generation gap m'dear. I have fonder feelings of the original non-musical version. Though your boyfriend was mightily pretty, I'll give you that.

Nice house! What does that blue sign read in front it?
Somehow it impresses me how (almost) everyone has his own house in the US. As you probably know, while home-ownership has increased, it's still much more common here to rent.
I actually thought from time to time if I should try to find something where I could spent a few months of the year in the US. Preferably to shorten the autumn/winter months here and escape to somewhere warm and with a beach. In this case, while the neighbourhood seems enticing and very generous, and the soccer pitch is also plus (preferably without dog poo), I'm afraid the location is too far away from the nearest ocean. :)

A leaf blower may come in handy. Maybe you can borrow one from the neighbour. ;)

I also finally friended your journal. A step overdue now for a while. I hope you don't mind. :)

Thanks (for the add (finally!) and the house compliment)! The blue sign lets potential intruders know my home is wired for security. Not that my neighborhood has that kind of problem, but you just never know. I rented for many years until I decided I didn't want to give my money to somebody else every month. I wanted to build up my own home equity. Living near the ocean would be ideal, but it's much cheaper to live on the mainland. ;)

Leaf blowers are for the lazy folk. Give me a rake any day! Actually, I just let my lawn mower suck up the leaves and then bag them. :P

Is it true you don't really feel them when they're in?
Weeelllll.....not at first. I felt them for the first couple of weeks, but you do get used to it and I no longer feel them. Unless there is a piece of lint or something on them. But you would feel that on your eye even without contacts.

Go for it. The decision to convert to contacts was one of the best decisions I ever made. I no longer have a fear to touch my eye. The peripheral vision is so much clearer. I don't have to move my head to see something above or beside me. I just move my eye and voila! :P I use the disposable kind (every two weeks or so). I need one for astigmatism in my left eye which makes it a little more expensive than the contact for my right eye. Money-wise, I pay less than $200 a year for my contacts.

You're lucky then. I wish my vision was better, but crappy eyesight runs in my family. Though I did not have to really wear glasses in order to function until my mid-twenties.
