alliecat8: (Sometimes Scream)

to me, this is a crisis. to you, it means I can't exactly spam til I go to the dr.

In the interest of full disclosure, I must inform my readers (hee, that sounds so IMPORTANT! Y'all ARE important, also slightly nuts for reading this nonsense) that I FUCKING NEED GLASSES. OR I NEED FUCKING GLASSES. OR FUCK, I NEED GLASSES. Any way you look at it (bwahahahahahaha, I'm funny...not?) I can't see to read anymore. That means I can't see to type. HOW CAN A SPAM QUEEN DO HER SPAM DUTIES IF SHE CAN'T SEE??? I SEE NO CREATIVE SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM, MAYBE BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE SQUAT. That means that although I've been getting scripts for reading glasses for the last 3 years, I've been throwing them in the garbage but now I need to fill the next one. I mean, they look GREAT on some people but they make my face look like Barney without the purple. Also Barney doesn't wear glasses. Still, use your imagination. THIS CALLS FOR A TEMPER TANTRUM, BRB.

MAYBE YOU CAN GET CONTACTS. OR TOTES COOL SEXY LIBRARIAN GLASSES.

IDK, WE HAVE NO [livejournal.com profile] uberaeryn ON HAND, SOMEONE HAS TO DO THE CAPSLOCK DUTIES.

I MIGHT LOOK LIKE A LIBRARIAN IN LIBRARIAN GLASSES. WHCIH SCARES ME A LOT. MIXED HIPPIE CHICKS AND LIBRARIANS JUST MAKE FOR BAD MOJO, Y'KNOW? EVEN THOUGH THEY LOOK VERY NEW YORK ON EVERYONE ELSE. *SIGHS, BUT STAYS STUCK IN THE SIXTIES*

I CAN GET CONTACTS. I EVEN KNOW HOW TO PUT THEM IN 'CAUSE I HAVE NON-SCRIPT COLORED ONES. I'M JUST RESISTANT. GLASSES, PHOOEY. I WANT VIRGIN EYES. THOUGH YOU ARE NOT PLAYING FAIR W/THE COOKIE-BABE AND THE SEXY SHADES.

I raise you one Kris and one Adam. ;p

If they make your face look like Barney then they're not the right style of frames. There are frames for everyone, you just have to find the right kind. Like sunglasses.

I am thinking you need like Tina Fey/Sarah Palin style glasses to look cool but I am not entirely sure. Oversize movie-star sunglass type frames might be good too.

SARAH PALIN? YOU DARE SAY THAT NAME TO ME? LEAVE IT AT TINA FEY...SAME DIFFERENCE.

I'M TYPING IN CAPSLOCK TODAY. DON'T KNOW WHY. I'M ALSO DOING A LOST REVIEW SO PLEASE TO READ IT, IF YOU WISH. DID I COMMENT ON YOURS? I WILL.

SORRY BOUT THE CAPSLOCK. I FEEL SHOUTY 'CAUSE I'VE BEEN SO QUIET LATELY.

stop yelling at me.

i will read you review when it is up. and probably when i get home.

i have typed in lowercase to try to counteract the shouting.

awwww, do you really want me to be quiet? it changes my whole outlook on life and it's raining and i'm defying the rain and shouting feels good but sarah palin wouldn't shout so i'll just be quiet as a mouse here in my own little corner in my own little chair.

NO I WANT YOU TO TALK TO ME SILLY. JUST NOT SHOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUT.

SARAH PALIN CAN BITE ME.

Now you're shouting, and I'm confused. How should I speak, madame? asked Alice of the Queen.

[identity profile] eponine119.livejournal.com 2010-02-05 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
speak as you would be spoken to?

I WON'T HOLD MY TONGUE

(your next line is OFF WITH HER HEAD, btw)

[identity profile] eponine119.livejournal.com 2010-02-05 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
OOOOOOOOFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF with her head!

[identity profile] alliecat8.livejournal.com 2010-02-05 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
Who cares for YOU? said Alice. You're nothing but a pack of cards!

At which point the whole pack rose up and came flying down upon her, and she tried to beat them off....

I am a bit concerned for Alice and this thread...should we rate it NC-17?

[identity profile] eponine119.livejournal.com 2010-02-05 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
I believe I shall politely avert my eyes and leave Alice alone with those cards...

*hugs*

As someone who's needed them since she was 13, I feel your pain, despite the fact I've had much longer to be used to them! At least you'll be able to take them off when you're not reading!

*hugs back extra tight, 'cause who needs to see anything then?*

I'm just a defiant girl. Giving in to the glasses feels like just the beginning of me falling apart. Which, since you've worn them since you were 13, is not sensible but silly of me, huh? It's not like they're walkers or Depends adult underwear.

THANK GOD THEY'RE NOT A SIGN OF SENILITY! I'd be doomed, as I have to wear them all day every day or else I trip over my nose (which is about as far as I can see clearly without 'em).

Besides, Sawyer wears glasses for middle aged reasons and no-one's about to convince me he's anything other than still wonderfully gorgeously in his prime. Wear them with pride! It's better than flashing your boobs and hoping the doc will put them on instead (the glasses, not the boobs!) to check 'em out (the boobs, that is).

OK, enough rubbish now, I go to bed. Dammit, i don't think I have an icon of Sawyer in glasses. Hmm, what about Johnny? Nope, not him either *sigh*

I have NO SYMPATHY. My eyes fluctuate daily (thank you, menopause!) In front of me right now are FIVE pairs of glasses and that's not counting the pair on my face.

Welcome to my world ;)

*jaw hits floor*

Is THAT what it is? Menopause? Because I just found out I was in menopause on Monday. Well hell. Hey, what if I just don't use any, then, and use an eyepatch each day for the one that's working worst? Then they'd both get exercise, right, and I could pretend I was, um, one of those pirate dudes that my flist is loony over.

It coincided with it with me, and my doc said it's not unsuual.

And I *do* need the glasses, don't think you can slide out of that! It's not about exercising them, it's about them changing shape!

Solution: Hire someone to read and type for you. Yes?

No?

Oh.

Boo, glasses.

Take a deep breath, it'll be all right. I've worn glasses for years (off and on for reading and stuff), but at my last appointment my prescription changed and need to wear them like most of the time. So my vain ass ordered contacts as well as the glasses, so it doesn't look like I now need them.

However I freak out when I see my finger coming at my eyeball and it takes me 20 minutes to get the SOB's in.

I had glasses when I was at uni just for distance reading, then I had to start wearing them all the time, then I went to contacts, then I had them lasered... a natural progression I'd say :)
