i got new glasses
*
i�ve been working really hard on this thing where i don�t ban places on account of one person. with my hot temper i tend to get a little carried away with �saying� I�M NEVER FUCKING GOING THERE AGAIN. when i actually end up banning a place, for real, it generally turns out to be a huge pain in the ass. but by then the damage has already been done and i am too stubborn to step back in the place.
a few years ago i banned The Running Room. this ban is a really fucking HUGE inconvenience for me. i do not even know if HUGE is a big enough word to describe it, i think i will use MEGA HUGE instead.
i banned my optometrist�s office/shop because there was this FUCKWIT MORON that worked there and even though i had been going there forEVER this dude had it in for me or something. the couple that owned the place were good to me but i questioned how they could have a fuckwit with his level of fuckwitness working for them.
one day i went in because my piece of shit frameless, supposed to be more convenient and totally stealth IM NOT EVEN WEARING GLASSES were bent so bad i had to walk with my head cocked to one side. fuckwit looked at my face straight on and said �those are not bent� AND he laughed at me. bastard. i tried to straighten them myself at home and broke them in two. NOT BENT MY ASS YOU FUCKWIT.
[this other dude who worked at this glasses place next to where i used to work obviously thought i was hot in my suits and shit because he fixed them FOR FREE. new everything. AWESOME. they of course broke again, because you cannot turn a shit pair of glasses into good ones. they lasted until i was forced to post this scan, at which point i gave up on ever fixing them again.]
in february 2005 when my optometrist�s office called and told me i was due for my two-year check up i was rude, not cool, and stuck to my ban. i walk by there all the time [they are located a block from my apartment] and would scowl in at the FUCKWIT so i knew he still worked there.
by this time i was far far away from the job with the suits and the nice glasses dude who fixed things for free and i had no way of knowing i�d break my frameless pair AGAIN.
already being a headache suffer to the max i knew i was doing myself a disservice not going to get them checked. if the stupid government had not taken away the covered every two-year exam i would have just gone anywhere and said fuck it to the fuckwit. resenting having to pay the �fee� to have them checked also egged on my procrastination.
recently i realized that i had not seen the fuckwit in there at all lately. i tried to go in but still could not. but then i did it {insert applause here} and it was awesome! the fuckwit was GONE. AND i found out he had gotten LOTS of complaints. LOTS. turned out the old owners had taken off to Ontario and sold the place. i booked an appointment with the new optometrist and during my exam to my utter AMAZEMENT learned that my eyes had gotten BETTER. not worse, better. i didn�t even know that shit happened. now when i put my contacts in my head doesn�t instantly start pounding ten times harder. AWESOME. i had them in the other day when we went to the Team Canada game [i still haven�t posted what will be the motherload of hockey montages] and we smoked a lot of pot and my eyes didn�t get red NOR did i get a headache any worse than the normal one i have almost 24/7.
i don�t know what the moral of this story should be and here is why:
- had i gone in february 05 for my annual two-year check-up i could have ended up in glasses even stronger because i think my old optometrist sucked or something and i also would have had to deal with the fuckwit moron.
- having waited till i was almost a full year overdue for a check-up, i was able to go back to the place i liked because it is super close, the fuckwit was gone, i got a new AWESOME optometrist, AND my eyes got better.

i�ll have to leave it at making progress towards not banning places on account of one person. really though, i don�t think i can do it, i don�t think i can go back into The Running Room. i swear at the place every time i even see one.
* there is a lot going on here. i�m not just �trying� to look sexy {and failing miserably} in my new glasses and PJ�s, i am actually completely STRESSED OUT. when adam snapped this beauty we were watching the World Juniors. Canada was tied with the States 2-2 NEAR the end of the third and i couldn�t handle it. [we won! thank you baby jesus] this photo also marks day 7 in the team Canada toque. and yes, when i get stressed out watching sporting events sometimes i do grab my breasts and fall off the furniture.
