My place of employment gets brownie points today.

Yesterday my contacts were driving me crazy all day long, so I took them out as soon as I got home. This morning I elected to wear my despised glasses for the first time in public, and only a few people even mentioned them. And none of the comments were negative. (Mostly just bewildered, because I've worked there a year and nobody realised I wore contacts.)

My boss gets bonus brownie points, because he actually told me they looked nice. ^__^ Makes me not feel quite so blah when wearing them. Though I always feel kind of strange because they're kids' glasses. All the adult ones were too big. >.>

The worst downsides to wearing the glasses now that Rickm fixed the alignment issue with them, is that they screw up my depth-perception something terrible (so driving the forklift today was interesting, for sure) and I can't wear my sunglasses with them and I'm light-sensitive so the drive home was... somewhat painful. x.x Still, my eyes feel much better than they did yesterday. And I have tomorrow off, so hopefully they'll be all rested up by the time I have to go back to work on Wednesday.

I also stopped by the post office on the way home today and picked up stamps - both the forever kind and the overseas kind. ^___^ So as soon as I can get stuff scanned I can send out postcards. Also owe letters to silrini and the_doro, and since nothing needs scanning there I can send those out as soon as I write them. ^^;;

Hmm, maybe I'll draw a chibi or something... 9.9

Gaia-related post later. Anyone not on that filter that wants to be, drop me a note.
