Glasses

 

January 26, 2023

Went to bed without a single drop of alcohol. Noticed no difference. 

Snow promised for last night did not come. 

Went to Ingle’s to do a little writing in the Starbucks lounge. Successful story beginning. Not only that, but free cappuccino from a former student who works there.

Visit to the eye doctor. Prescription changed only very slightly (likely not at all, but she wanted to sell me glasses). They did dilate my eyes, which made them nearly unfunctional for, so far, five hours. Will refuse next time, as I have in the past. The problems I was having may be related to 1) dryness and 2) the glare proofing having worn off the lenses. $500. SOMETHING sent me there upon a wave anxiety, so I went through with it.
