I'm typing this half-blind, yay!

candylandLast night, when I went to take my contacts out, my right eye was completely red. It had been feeling sort of dry and itchy all day. So I decided that maybe it was time to go back to my roots and pull out the ol' pair of glasses for a few days. Let it be known that I really don't like wearing my glasses, especially because they don't like to stay up on my nose right.
But I got a lot of odd looks, compliments, questions ("When did you start wearing glasses?" "...fourth grade."), and one comment of, "Wow, you suddenly look really smart!" I was amused =P See, my vision is good for close distances--reading, playing my DS, typing at the computer, and the like. But my DVD rack is less than three feet from me, and I can't read the titles on the DVD boxes. That's how bad my eyes are.
I'll be wearing them at least through tomorrow, and possibly through work on Saturday as well, just to give my eye a chance to recover from whatever is bothering it. I'd like to get my contacts back in before we go see Coraline on Saturday night. We'll see how it looks when I get out of work on Saturday.
I dug my scale out of my storage unit today and put it in the downstairs bathroom. Out of curiosity, I hopped on it. And I promptly vowed to compare it to the one at work tomorrow, because according to that, I'm down eighteen pounds from where I started--which would put me down eight in the last week. I...don't think that's quite right @_@ But we'll see tomorrow when I weigh in. As long as I'm down, I'm happy!
Actually...today is day four of my 30 Day Shred, and it's the first day that I haven't made it all the way through the entire workout. I tried, I really did, but I'm so worn out that I can barely lift the weights. Even if I don't want to be doing it, I can usually get myself into the workout by about halfway through the first circuit. Not tonight. My heart just wasn't in it this time around.
This might have something to do with the fact that I got about four and a half hours of sleep last night. But yeah, I made it through the warm-up and clawed my way through the second circuit and then gave up. I'll do better tomorrow. Because it's getting me results, and I like that.
Graaaaaah...I really need to write... *kicks That Anon Fic*
