wondernugget, I remembered a plus on my Minus/Plus List that I forgot to include in the last post:
++ I had an eye exam today. I really like eye exams. Partially, it is because I enjoy answering the "Is this clearer or is THIS clearer" and "What is the last line you can read" questions. Also, the doctor sits really close to look in my eyes and eyes are such neat things anyway. I feel like she's checking out the bottom of the ocean when she peers in and examines my rods and cones and eye parts. It's probably the best time I could have while visiting a doctor of any sort. There's no weighing involved, no bodily judgements, and I always have a tiny sense of accomplishment when I follow the penlight well or manage not to blink when she's peeking in my eyes.
PLUS, there's always the excitement of getting to pick out a new pair of glasses. New frames, YAY! Actually, I have loved my last four pairs of glasses, ever since I started picking out thick plastic frames. There was a plain black squarish kind, then my awesome rhinestone pair, then the super librarianish clear blue/green/yellow ones, and the ones I currently wear--a very rectangly pair that go from black to a creamy tortoise shell, top to bottom. The ones I picked out today are still kind of rectangly, but they get wider on the outsides; they were either these or these. I hope they get here quick!
The only part that is NOT pleasant about the whole experience is when she checks the pressure of my eyes by putting drops of yellow stuff in them. It makes me feel like my sockets get crowded, and that's gross.
In conclusion, eye exams = AWESOME.
