I agree with the paranoia. My false click rate must be high because I just get into a rhythm and keep clicking. I hate the air puff but don't mind the blue light probe and I loathe things touching my eyes normally.
Kat is me. Except the clicking light test also makes me nauseous.
I'm glad I am not the only one with eye doctor paranoia. Even the "which is clearer" test stresses me out, and I sometimes have to ask to see things twice, just to make sure.
I was in 6th grade and had gone home for lunch with my friend Sandra, who lived across the street from our elementary school. I wasn't supposed to go as I had no permission. The shuttle blew up 9 minutes into lunch and the school had a hell of a time fimding me. I got into loads of trouble.
Happy Birthday Juliana!
Oh, and I think we were watching when it blew up, and I was in third grade, but I don't really, really remember.
ETA- Obviously I am conflating two events, because I am older than Aims! We probably watched another launch in in third grade!
we were watching at school in the auditorium and we ran out to the coutyard and disturbed all the classes in session with the news and then they all came in to watch the news also.
WOOHOO for Friday, people.
Friday! What are people doing this weekend?
Today has the feel of a very Mondayish day. I know of at least three projects I may have to do, but I suspect all three of them are going to turn into oh never minds, after I spend several hours waiting to hear about them.
OMG, xkcd is reading our board: [link]
I was in my high school humanities class when the shuttle exploded. They rolled in a TV to watch the news.
The alt text made me laugh myself sick.
I came *this* close to posting a link to that xkcd in Minerverse.
