weekend of scariness
so this weekend, a lot of scary things happened.
on saturday, because we were going nuts (seriously, my housemates have regressed to elementary school. they’re hitting and making fun of each other. sheesh, it sure is hard being the only mature one!), talida and i went rock climbing. so actually, at first we just rushed out of the house wanting to get out and do something and actually drove away from dick’s (where we eventually rock climbed) before deciding we’d give it a try and turned around. aaactually, i lied and just wanted to see talida rock climb, but knew if i told her that, she’d not want to rock climb… in any case, we went rock climbing.
we’re both scared of heights. yeaaah, so rock climbing wasn’t the smartest thing to do. i took the easiest path on the wall and talida took the 2nd easiest. my guy knew i was a beginner though so talida said that some times they’ll help u by pulling you up as you’re climbing. we made it about half way up the wall when we both got stuck and tired. that’s when i looked down and nearly pee-ed in my pants. i also made the mistake of starting to climb without asking how i’d come down. apparently, u’re just supposed to let go of the wall and fall??? (a controlled fall of course, but still a fall) yeaa… no
2nd scary thing that happened this weekend was BOTH my contacts got stuck in my eyes. i spent nearly half a hour trying to get them out of my eyes but they were stuck there! (incidentally, they were the most comfortable and clearest i can recall) i tried rewetting drops… i tried saline solution… nothing! i tried closing my eyes to get them to move around, i tried keeping my eyes open without blinking to see if they’d dry out and pop out! eventually, i freaked out and bugged my roommate who told me to use her rewetting drops (do they make a difference?)… apparently that did the trick. still, i was afraid i’d be stuck with contacts on forever!! FORRRRRRRRREVER! they really wouldn’t move! even when i tried to nudge them or move them around in my eye! i hate bad vision

you need to get that laser eye surgery done…and then never will you have to wear contacts again.
at least you didnt have a contact get stuck on the some other part of your eye, or it curled up under neath your eyelid and you can’t get to it. that was…also scary.

i’ve been wanting to rock climb.. hehe dont pee in ur pants, wear depends next time so u’ll be prepared. i wanna skydive. i guess u wont join? once i spent 30 min trying to take a contact outta my eye when it had apparently dropped out already.. so i was rubbing my eyeball like crazy and it was all red and there was really no contact in it! ouch. i know a coworker who never takes his contacts out, just keeps them in for months and hasnt had a problem yet.
