ok. start of blog.

so i made the mistake of announcing my blog on facebook.  everyone wants the blog site.  i didn't dare tell them that 'i started a blog' translates to 'i snagged a url for a blog'.  geez.  i felt the pressure of friends with kids and their damn blogs.  so i started a blog.  but i'm a DINK (double income, no kids).  i don't have kids.  not because i haven't been trying to have kids...don't get me started.  so. i started a blog without kids to brag about. what's a girl to do?  or talk about?  i guess i could share why i don't have kids yet.  and, chat about the kids i DO have in my life....my nieces and nephews.  they're the best.  i may not be a mother yet, but i'm a damn good aunt!

let's start with today's events.  so, i went to work.  i worked until 1:15 or so until i went to a lasik eval appt. in sandy.  i'm sick of wearing glasses.  it's been since 8th grade. i'm done!!  so, anyway...  i was at Hoopes Vision Center in sandy for 2 1/2 hrs.  before i was graced with the presence of 'A' dr. hoopes.  initially, dr. richard yardley (a.k.a. dick) did all my initial prep-work.  he was most inquisitive when he found out i worked at the hilton downtown.  at first i thought it was great 'customer service'.  then, it got kind of uncomfortable.  towards the end of the appt. he was whispering about an additional discount and shoving prescription eye drops in my purse.  'don't let the drug rep see', he said.  'they retail for $100 a bottle'.  i just said 'ok', since he seemed so nervous about it.  little did he know it wasn't that big a deal to hook him up with a friends & family rate at my hotel....as long as there is availability.  anyhow.  it was interesting.  so despite all this weirdness, i have a lasik surgery scheduled for aug. 28th.  i'm stoked!  i'm so SICK of wearing glasses!

i think this is good for an initial post, right?  besides, i'm tired and the local news is almost over.  boa noite!
