That's all they really waaaaaaaant

It's Tuuuuueeeeeesday.

Well, I had my eye doctor appointment yesterday and it went pretty well. My prescription was unchanged from last year, so that's good news, even though it doesn't answer any headache questions. I did get scheduled for a visual field exam test and a follow-up appointment with the eye doctor, so we'll see if that provides any answers what-so-ever. Yesterday was really rough headache-wise, so I pretty much had to sleep for the entire afternoon.

I met up with a friend (AP) for dinner yesterday, too. We used to work together at Wolf Camera, so it was fun to catch up.

Today was surprisingly good, though! I got up and noticed my head wasn't hurting, so I went to the gym. I did about 30 minutes on the elliptical, and my head didn't bother me at all. AWESOME! The rest of the day was pretty much pain-free, so I'm knocking on wood here... I did get unusually tired today, so I did some napping.

Anything else? I met MV and her son for lunch at Chick-fil-A, so that was fun. He is almost a year old and is absolutely precious. I'm usually not a baby person, but he makes it easy to make an exception.

I've got kind of a long day tomorrow, so I better get a good night's sleep to make it through the day. I can't wait to sleep!!!

Night owl

Yooooooooooo. Just got home from a crew shift at the theatre. I was supposed to be on camera, but I ended up suggestionizing and camerafying solo because there was a no-show. It was fun! I hadn't seen a main stage show in a good bit. Hoorah!

I performed on Thursday night and was in some fun scenes - Buzzer Talk Show, Spanish-Dubbed Soap Opera, Sit Stand Lean Oscar, ABC Buzzer Beatnik Poetry, and Musical Styles (Reggae, Blues, Country, Rap). I have an official new favorite game of all time: ABC Buzzer Beatnik Poetry. Oh man! That junk is crazy-fun! My mom came to the show (per usual!) and so did two friends (JM and SLW). Baller!

Well, I've been staying up way too late since this whole hospitalization thing. I gradually stay up later and later and sleep later and later. I've pretty much lost all structure to my days, but I'm going to fix it ASAP. I guess this proves that, when I have it my way, I'm a bit of a night owl. I've always thought that I was a cross between a morning person and a night owl, but someone who slumps in the afternoons. I think I prefer being up late versus going to bed early. See? I wouldn't be having this debate with myself at 1:21 a.m. if I wasn't a night owl.

I don't really feel like saying anything else. I could try to recap the entire week, but it runs together. I went to the doctor and it went pretty well, but I need to see the eye doctor and the neurologist. Umm, my roommate and I went to Willy's on Thursday for lunch, but I think I need it again tomorrow (which is now 'today').

Honestly, I just can't believe October is ending. It feels like it just started... Happy Halloween! I don't like Halloween.

Blue cheese

Blue cheese is such a wonderful thing. I am in the midst of a blue cheese overdose right now. I'm joking, but I did have a buffalo and blue cheese burger at Taco Mac tonight. Plus, I shared some kettle chips as an appetizer, and they had blue cheese on them. It was truly a wonderful experience, and I needed to do some emotional eating after my high stress level all week.

I went to the eye doctor today, so that was exciting. I hadn't been in 20 months, so I figured it was about time for a check-up. The doctor says that I have astigmatism, so that's kind of interesting. Not really and I don't exactly understand it, but at least it redeems the fact that I made the appointment in the first place. Also, maybe it explains why I feel like my vision is blurry sometimes randomly. I can't wait to go pick out some new spectacles!

Today I ate some Skittles at work and discussed with my boss our Skittles-eating strategy. I always eat them in the following order... If I were to grab a handful, I would first eat all of the greens. Then, I'd eat all of the yellows, followed by all of the oranges. When I'm down to red and purple, I even it out so that I have the same number of reds and purples. At that point, I alternate between red and purple, and typically eat the final two Skittles (one red and one purple) in a pair. Is that obsessive-compulsive? Probably.

Well, I'm really tired and could use some good sleep before I work in my pajamas at home tomorrow. Awesome!
