From five.one on, my blog entries will be located at strikeslip.org: ask for it by name.
I decided to skip the Supertanker show in lieu of some quality time with Amy up in Manassas (priorities). So I had my traditional 5:30-9:00 drive through the Virginia countryside this morning. Hopefully I’ll get the pictures from this weekend up soon. We’ll see.
I expanded my music collection once again, with a trinity of trinities: three albums, three singles (including the “Yellow” single from Coldplay, in honor of the weekend as much as anything else [hook us up, Mays]), and three promos. (None of the CDs are represented in the [finally] updated aural fiations section over there.) § “”
I went to the optometrist this afternoon. I’ve know the past few years that I’m slightly myopic from all the work I do in front of computers. Focal distance of 33 cm, that’s me!
So I go in and they do the lovely glaucoma test. And who doesn’t love a puff of air in the eye? Then she tests my visual acuity: distance vision != good.
The optometrist has me go and pick out frames for my glasses (no problem) and then tells me she’ll dilate my eyes to check on them when I come and pick up the glasses in a week and a half. A week and a half?! When I got glasses before, they ground the lenses and all then and there. Complete weak sauce.
If you see me at The Concert this Saturday, I’ll be the guy with the binoculars. § “”
Maybe I should rephrase that and say there’re snowflakes falling.
Luckily the forecast for this weekend is lookin’ good. § “”
I’ve heard him do either 1 or 0 work; either really good or WTF? music. I’ll find out which digit soon enough. : ) § “”
