Vincent Fest

Last night my friend was keen to see Betrayal, but she also wanted to have another look at Purgatory. And a great evening was had by all.





I'm back to trying out contact lenses, and had a very successful day on Thursday, but on Friday I had to take the left lens out after a little while, and despite that being the distance lens I couldn't see to read. So Friday was a speccy day. I had another try today, but the problem remained. I'd gone out shopping, and had to nip into an optician's (not my own). They let me remove the lenses in their contact lens room, and spotted that the left lens was torn.

My willingness to carry on is seeping away. My left eye is irritated, and I'm not sure there isn't still a sliver of lens in there. My eyes are incredibly tired, and even in specs I can hardly focus on the computer screen. Add to all that the fact that it's been stiflingly hot today, and I suppose it's no surprise my head feels rather odd.

Hope I can see to watch Bobby in an hour.

    I watched "Dead" last night, the one with the hit man and the cousin who owns the crematorium ... anyway, I've decided Bobby was extra sexy in that episode ... lots of raising of the eyebrow and sexy looks. Soo....if you ever see that episode, I'll be looking forward to those photos :)

    I don't think I could ever use contact lenses as I can't stand the thought of touching my eye. It doesn't help that in college I had a roommate who's lens got stuck to her eye for whatever reason. Really freaked me out to see her poking at her eye like that.

    Good luck with it, though. I know my cousin says she can never go back to wearing glasses now that she finally got her contacts. It took her a while to get used to them, too.

    Oh Val, a torn lens is not good no wonder you're in pain. I've worn contacts since I was 13 and for the most part they've been fine. But, if they don't fit properly...Look out. I hope you can find a pair that works for you, if you can, you won't even notice them.

    Thank You for the lovely slideshows :)

    Great slideshows, Val. What could be more perfect than an evening with "Purgatory" and "Betrayed." Good luck with your contact lens experiment. I wore them from the time I was 16 up until I was 46. 30 years of wearing them meant I had to stop, at least for awhile. I am go back to wearing them just part time in the evenings, but I am sticking with my glasses at work during during the day.

    A double dose of Bobby is just twice as good! Seems perfectly sensible to me. Sorry you're having trouble with your eyes. Someone I used to work with tried for years to get on with contacts, but never, ever, could.

    How kind of you to oblige your friend...and us too!

    Hope your eyes feel better. I don't think I could do lenses either. Thought about laser eye surgery but it's just too risky and my eye doc said I'd get about 4-5 years of relief b/f I'd need glasses again. It's not worth it.

    I'm with music wench on this one, the thought of touching my eye like that totally skeeves me out. I don't even like close-ups of people's eyeballs!

    I do hope you are feeling better soon, and that your current predicament didn't keep you from enjoying Bobby!
