Okay, I think I managed it. I'm right eye dominant and right handed and the left side of my face is the smoother face of the institutionalized for life so I conform to everything.
I'm so damn predictable.
Why couldn't you be dealing drugs like normal people?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
I'm right handed and right-eye dominant, but I have poor vision in my right eye. This wasn't detected until I was about 11, because I cheated on the eye tests by peeking with my left eye. (Hey, they were tests. I thought you were supposed to do well on tests.) The result was that my brain started rejecting the image from my right eye, leading to my poor depth perception and general tendency to run into things like a pinball ball. On the other hand, I can only listen to a phone with my left ear.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Yay! I'm not clumsy and graceless. I'm cross dominated.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Right-handed and left-eye dominant. But I don't think I'm exceptionally clumsy.
Haven't checked out my face yet. There's only so many things one can do in the office without attracting undue attention.

If you google "eye dominance," you'll see there's considerable debate about the clumsy thing and an interesting study that indicates that people with cross dominance may be better hitters, but worse pitchers.

I'm right handed and right-eye dominant, but I have poor vision in my right eye.
I had this for most of my life, until I had the cataract surgery on the right eye, which left me with the nearsighted left & farsighted right combo I have now.
The first six or so weeks after the surgery my depth perception was totally out of whack, and I injured myself repeatedly. I'm much better now, but still on the clumsy side.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
After years of glasses and contacts, my depth perception got better. It never got good, though. That's why I'm the one backing up really slowly while people are yelling "You've got at least three feet back there."

And I'm off. To get the hair colored. The gray has got to go.
Here's hoping I don't trip down the stairs.

Question for the hive mind: anyone used Zicam Swabs? I'm trying to decide if I want to get some and force Pete to use them, because not only does he not need to get sick while in the final two (hellish) weeks of his current deadline, but *I* am not up to coping with him getting sick during a deadline.

I think they work, Jilli. But mostly, I've used lozenges.
