I hate shopping. I've gone out twice to the mall now, once on Black Friday at 6:00 AM and then tonight. The sad thing is, I still have not purchased anything for anyone else!
I come home and all I want to do is lie on the couch, watch football & ER, then fall asleep. Lucky me, my roommate has been on some kinda "watch all of Family Guy season 1" kick. While it is my television, I am not going to be such a bitch as to come home and demand the TV. [sighs]
So let's see, tonight I first had an appointment at the optometrist to get my eyes checked and finally get a new set of glasses. Michelle and I had plenty of time to choose my frames, as it took friggin forever. First there was some kind of problem with my insurance. I dunno if something changed and we were not notified or what, but my plan should have paid for the exam, lenses and $100 toward the frames. According to the insurance company, I had a $40 co-pay (cost of exam) and then 20% off frames and lenses. WTF. In the end I opted to pay the damn $360.00 out of pocket and deal with the insurance company myself. Bleh.
Top it off with I have to wait 10 days for the glasses because I have astigmatism in my left eye and they couldn't do the lenses there. [sighs] I was hoping to have them before the company holiday party on the 8th. Guess that's not going to happen. Poo.
Oh yeah, and they want me to come back to do another pressure test for Glaucoma. I went to the optometrist instead of opthamologist to avoid just that! "No, I'm sorry, I cannot help but jump when you shoot air into my eyes."
"Do I want contacts? Do you really think I could put those things in my eyes when I cannot even stand eye drops and air?" (I didn't really say that)
I truly am an eye doctor's worst nightmare though.
If I go to the party, that is. I really dislike shopping for clothes since it is so hard for me to find things that fit. Petite sizes? Funny how I've never purchased a petite anything I did not have to hem or have altered. And I really suck at hemming. Lesbians do not hem.
Michelle got a really nice gown that looked very good on her. Why can't it be so easy for me? Gowns are pretty much out of the question for me unless I have them special made. I've gained too much weight in the last year to wear one anyway. Ah, and last year at this time I was wearing a size 2. So sad.
I start the intensive training tomorrow for my additional responsibilities and then the whole team leaves at 2:00 to go bowling. It should be fun, but I cannot bowl to save my life. I do like it though. Well, except the getting shoes part. And I just know I'll have snickers at the giant "2" on the back of the shoes. Even better, maybe I'll get some cute girls ones that are pink with My Little Pony on them. Hehe.
He's still watching Family Guy. This is why I am rambling.
Oh! I found a perfume I really liked today that I ended up buying. No, not Paris Hilton's. Bleh, the smell of slut.
Guerlain: Insolence
The name is so fitting too!
Best thing was Michelle looking at me strangely after I explained what I bought. "Incest perfume?"
Hah!
Oooo, he's gone to bed! I know this post has been so riveting, but alas, all good things must come to an end.
I leave you with an obvious and oversight made in the casting of Casino Royale. Daniel Craig? Oh no, he's got nothing on a true "Secret Agent Man".
