At my last eye exam, my prescription got BETTER because of age! Instead of needing bifocals, my eyes are just getting better. I was so happy, because I was having a lot of trouble seeing, and my mom and grandpa and uncle have/had all lost significant portions of their sight through glaucoma, cataracts, and in the case of my uncle, his eye just dying. But really, my glasses were just much too strong!

I found that not having a lawn has denied me much displaying of my grumpy old woman-ness. Luckily the subway provides me with many other opportunities to get my GOW on.

Not to mention throwing a well-placed elbow now and again.
My mother tried to tell me she'd found a beautiful dress for me for my birthday. The minute she hit the word ruffles, I stopped her. The woman's definitely going around the bend. I didn't wear ruffles with I was five, for God's sake.

But really, my glasses were just much too strong!
That happened to me when I got new glasses a couple of years ago; the eye doctor said that she sees a lot of people who OVER-corrected their nearsightedness in their 20s, believing that if seeing the eye chart sharply is good, then MEGASHARP must be even better.
And then they hit their 30s (she said), and think they need bifocals, when it just turns out that their previous prescription for nearsightedness was too strong.
My nearsightedness is going the other way, too (back towards regular-sightedness), and it's *weird,* man!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Dude. You want to go out to dinner? Or a bar? Swear a lot? Something?
