I'm going to take a stand against getting anythinged in the eye. Especially without valium.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I really want a nap.

I really do not want a laser in my eye.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Frickin' lasers!

A nurse stood behind me to help hold my head still, but I was told I was very good about not moving. I was staring down the barrel of a laser that was going to preserve my eyesight. Frozen as a terrified baby fawn under a bush, doc, you do your job, I'll do mine.

Hey, Jilli, have you ever been to ScareLA?

Sounds unpleasant, Connie. I hope you won't have to undergo too many treatments.

Calli, any time I start to work out I am starving all the time ridiculously. Even if I just went to an extra yoga class or something.
Not just me, then? Well, that's reassuring. Thanks!

Tomorrow I'm off to a family event in MI. My nephew's getting married this weekend. His fiance is delightful--I'm so glad she's joining the family.

Okay, phone call of the day! Colleague (male) in call center: "The patron wants to speak to a woman because she wants your opinion on some wigs and hairstyles." Me: "Okay, I am a woman..." Caller: "I wanted a lady's opinion on two separate wigs." So she told me how to find images online and I looked and gave her my opinion.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

Right there with you, but substitute chloroform for valium. I'd wear Mr. Magoo glasses that could stop a bullet before letting someone perform surgery on my eyes.

Lemme tell ya, eye surgery is not fun. And they DID give me valium. And eventually I made them give me something more (fentanyl, I think?) because I was like "yeah, my anxiety is ratcheting up the closer we get to the surgery and it's burning that valium right off..."

Flea, that's pretty funny! :)
