It is me! I got lasik surgery on my left eye, which pre-surgery was worse than 20/400, and now it's 20/20. Pretty cool, no? The procedure took about 10 minutes all together, but the consultation (which was free, so go for it) took about an hour and a half a couple of days previous, and I was at the clinic for about 2 hours the day of the surgery, just waiting around and filling out paperwork. Anyway, it was a bit pricey, but most definitely worth it. Plus, they give you a sweet ass pair of safety glasses-inspired sunglasses that you're forced to wear at all times when awake for 4 days. I've opted for my own glasses since day 2, because the ones they gave me are, frankly, ridiculous looking, and not actually all that dark, but more designed to prevent me from sticking my fingers and whatnot in my eye accidentally. I also have to wear an eye shield for 4 nights so I don't accidentally poke my cornea while sleeping. Probably a good precaution. Corneas are important. Anyway, I just got it done Thursday, and I went in for my next-day checkup to find I had 20/20 vision, and that my corneal flap was healing perfectly, so I'm pretty stoked. I'll keep you posted on any new developments.
We've seen a couple of movies lately, most notably Spiderman and Anchorman. Spiderman 2 was better than 1, of course, and I did enjoy it. I had hyped it up quite a bit for myself, because everyone I knew who saw it said it was absolutely fantastic, and I don't know if I'd go that far in describing it, but it was good, the characters were better developed, the bad guy was cool, and there will definitely be another movie. I saw Anchorman last night, and I laughed my ass off the whole time. I ran into a friend of my sister's, who also saw the movie, and she said she could hear me laughing above pretty much everyone else. Sweet. There were some completely random moments in the movie, like Pleasure Land, which made really no sense, but as a whole, freaking funny. I think I'll see it again, because there were so many great lines that I've forgotten.
In other news, I have no other news, so I'm going to do nothing again, maybe sit in the sun for a bit. Going to see Bryan Adams on Wednesday, looking forward to that. Colin James is opening, so it should be a great show.
