One week from now the big snip will be done 👀

I’ll be high as fuck on drugs from the surgery, wearing protective goggles and not able swim or bike for week, but it will be good to be finally done with glasses. My contacts more and more bother me these days, and the cost of contacts keeps going up as are visits to my awful chain-store vision shop where they don’t even have an optometrist on-site – clerks check you in the the optometrist serves half the country remotely via tele-medication.

Surgery is a cost and there are some risks, but for the number of years its expected to last, paying $4k and a few hours and maybe days of misery and restrictions are worth it. It’s less then I spent installing the lift-kit on my truck that is almost junk ten years later. And in theory my life won’t be junk in 10 years but will last several more years into the future. I am not saying I don’t enjoy having a big jacked up truck for as long as I had it, but having good vision for the next 30 years without having to deal with contacts and glasses will be worth it. Contacts are so expensive and such a pain. Especially now with all my issues with dry eyes, especially when I’m singing along with that Brewer and Shipley song.
