The Randy Jackson "collection" What the ........

Miraculous news friends!!!! I'm not going blind, not suffering from "Retinal detachment" "optic nerve disorder" or "cataracts" As a matter of fact, I'm just getting old, my eyes are weak and needed contacts / eyeglasses for distance! 


did have a prescription years ago....I just stopped wearing glasses one day (five years ago), when they broke and when my re-order for contacts *I wanted to be cute and try green eyes   came in the wrong color - *cough, cough - What's not to love about Hulk green??






I had turned a blind eye (haa, couldn't resist), to my failing eyesight - night driving has been the worst for me lately.









 Thanks to my recent drivers licences renewal (omg my new photo is despicable! I actually liked my previous photo on my I.D), My eyes were opened (again, another pun), to the urgent need for a eye exam. When the clerk asked me to place my forehead and eyes into the scope thing and then to read the top line, I replied "What line" haaa!!





"Eye" didn't wanna just go to anyone -  was certain a specialist was the only option! OMG do "eye" need surgery?? Do I visit a ophthalmologist or an optometrist - did ya know there was a difference? Geeeze!!!


I decided the best option for me was to start with the optometrist and learn their opinion if I needed to see the ophthalmologist. Thankfully the visit didn't end with any bad news like Retinal detachment" "optic nerve disorder"  "cataracts" or blindness! - Winning!!!


The idea of having to deal with contacts is not something I want to think about - I don't do well with the pulling of the eyelids while trying to place synthetic materials into my eye! The solutions, cleaning, storage - grrrrrr!!! Not to mention the dry eyes all day or giving the impression I may be suffering from Tourette's (Check out the previous blog I wrote about this by clicking the link "Tourette's)





Don't get me wrong, I'm very thankful for the advancements in medicine that enable us to have better sight with contacts :) "EYE" just don't want to be one that has to use them - haa


With that being said, I was hopeful to score a cute set of eyeglasses that would be a perfect fit for me! EPIC FAILURE!!!!!! 
1) I'm too young to wear glasses for the rest of my life
2) I don't like the mark glasses create on the nose
3) I don't like HOW I LOOK IN GLASSES
4) How long before I add a necklace string thing?


The list could go on and on :( I will add that the BIGGEST reason why I left without eyeglasses may seem silly to you, but to me IT IS A BIG ISSUE!! I have a serious problem with celebrity endorsed / sponsored glasses!!!!!! I was amazed to learn that "Beyonce" "Kimora Lee Simmons" "Baby Phat" among others HAVE THEIR OWN FLIPPIN LINE OF EYE GLASSES!!! NOT SUNGLASSES - EYEGLASSES!!!!!!!!! 


I refuse, did I mention REFUSE to wear anything from the Randy "in it to win in" Jackson Collection! They may look 'tight dawg' , BUT NOT TO ME!!! or ON ME!!!













I've had dry eyes for a week now!

Let me make this easier for you... DELETE! Now. Today!!!




Have you ever heard or used the expression "That's so High School" or "Jr. High" in reference to a situation that is immature? Well, I'm puzzled at how I could fairly 'date' a situation I found myself in!! To best describe it, I'd say "That's sooooooo pre-K" Haa!






The past few day's I've had some issues with my Facebook account. I'm not able to comment / post / like certain feeds that appear on my wall while using my Blackberry (Huge crisis huh??), but I can on my laptop - soo bizarre! SO FUSTRATING!!!! I need to interact with my peeps and I'm rarely on my laptop.



Long story short, over the weekend I had some down time :)  Ahhhh........ how golden is 2am on a Saturday morning! (I don't know when the last time I had this), I was finally on my laptop to check in on my 'peeps'  (Is it possible that I'm the ONLY PERSON TO LOOK AT RANDOM STRANGERS PIX IF A FRIEND IS TAGGED - haaa!) What a waste of time! 















Anyway, I discovered that a FB "Friend" that  requested 'me' and added "me" HAS BLOCKED ME FROM SEEING THEIR PAGE!!!! WHILE THEY HAVE (HAD) ACCESS TO MY PAGE - they blocked me from theirs! I know this because I can only see their profile pic along with info like: School, Employer, a couple of pix etc. 




Let me understand this......... You would like access to my page, posts, pix etc. I 'accept' and then you want to put restrictions on ME??? Haaaa!!!!! I'm not interested in 'growing' my FB friends to the 5001 mark! I have no interest in any people "friends" that are not genuine, sincere, mutual, or INTENTIONAL!!! We know many, MANY mutual people and it totally strikes me odd?? Why the 'Block' yo!?? Why would they request to be my friend (spy on me),  yet BLOCK ME??? 
WHY WOULD I WANT SOMEONE LIKE THAT TO HAVE ACCESS TO ME??? It's a creepy thought!




 I try to live by words I tell my kids "When in doubt, assume the BEST about people" - I don't know what to think about this other than my gut feeling........So let me make this easier for that person.......... DELETE!!!  


No longer shall you creep on my page without me being able to do the same in return. Not that their life is so fascinating that I'd even bother - geeze
