i need an eye test. i went for one just recently because i was worried that i couldn't read motorway signs (and i said as much to them) until i'm really close up, but it's mostly a problem in the dark because shiny things go blurry when my eyes are working to see dark bits, or something, and basically they said well it's only .15 of a difference and you can get thqat kind of difference just by changing how faqr your glasses are up your nose and then they looked at me like i was stupid and/or lying about where i have my glasses and i left feeling annoyed and confused and not able to see any better. so today we were talking about it (and my eyes really are shit, i'm wearing 5 and 5 1/2 lenses now and i have astigmatism and i can't see) and dave and ruth basically said i need stronger glasses and i should go see an optician who uses letters that randomise, as i have a tendency to remember the letters or just guess from their vague shape. and i suppose i really should just say it's not clear and go for a higher line but i've been there since i was four and i hate my eyes being so bad anyway and i want them to be better and it's hard trying to change a fifteen year habit. bleah. i hadn't realised just how touchy i am about it.
anyway, i'm at my sister's house right now using a laptop they have lying round spare (yes, they have more money than i'm used to) and the mouseness is very confusing. the linux doesn't bother me but there's this tiny mouseball thing in the middle of tghe keyboard that's supersensitive and really confusing, and the buttons are all teh wrong way round. bleah.
today we went to a bbq at alexx's (i think that's the spelling) and i made friends with jenny who was also new to the group and who is thirty and slightly crazy and i ate lots of meat, so no more protein until i've done some exercise... ahh feck that.
i left a lot of things undone at home. i fixed up the kitchen before coming here, it's really nice now and i said to steve he must either eat or throw out the fruit pretty soon cause i don't wanna come back to find my nice clean kitchen all sticky and he said oh it's your kitchen now is it and i said yes because i cleaned it and he says oh so anything i clean is mine and i said yes. i don't think i have anything to fear from him there. but other than that i left quite a bit of stuff undone, i buggered off the night before jemma's party which was tactless of me but she should know by now that i'm just crap and basically i felt like if i didn't go then, i wouldn't go. the only reason i was so late leaving was the mess with the euphonium and not being able to get it fixed on weds. meh, never mind. so i'm missing a few parties and things but i probably wouldn't have kept track anyway because i'm rubbish at that sort of thing and to be honest it had got to the point where rather than miss steve or argue and argue and practically drag him out of the house i would prefer just to stay in and play stupid games and whatnot, and leaving for a couple of weeks neatly skirts round that whole issue.
when he got it into his head that i was going for two weeks, then going somewhere else for a week, then preparing to leave for uni, he asked me if i was trying to tell him something.
i'm not.
oh and after that rant the other day? i forgot to bring my razor. i've actually left all my bathroom stuff half packed, in the bathroom. thankfully i brought a toothbrush, having two on the go. but d'oh, i'n a fool.
can't remember anything else that needs to be told. i bought a few birthday presents this week. i haven't got anything for nathan but the plan is some sort of doll wearing pink. perhaps a proportionally correct doodad, if i can find one.
i keep pressing the m button instead of the comma and it's really annoying me (despite the fact that i can type about six times as fast on this than the comps at home) so i'm gonna go. love and headbutts.
