8-23-07
One week from today I will be able to see for first time since 1987 without glasses or contacts. I have friends on here who were born after that year.
I'll never forget the day at Lombard Jr High when Nate Dhamers walked in to science class and said " Vince, now you're a full flegged nerd." It wasn't till Freshman year of HS that I got the contacts and have rarely taken them out since.
I have Vision Insurance thru Cobra with BK that expires soon and wanted to get every last bit out of "The King" after giving them 18 years of my life. While lookin at their website, I found that they give a 15% discount on LASIK. I was kinda hesitant bout it, but have heard really good things from Margo, Debbie, & My cousin Mike about their results.
The next week will be the hardest becasue I can't wear my contacts for a week prior to the surgery. I've got to play one of the toughest guys in TnT with glasses. I've got to run and lift people without losing them or worse yet haveing a lens pop out, which they do on occasion. I have to drive at night with them, which sucks. and then the hardest part...I'm not supposed to sweat for three days afterwards.
Being a fat guy, rolling out of bed sometimes brings on a sweat. TnT is all about getting Sweaty, and then comes Saturday September 1st.
I'm not complaining cause I'm all about being there for friends, But I'm helping two people move on the first, have a TnT Show and then a one time show at the Skybox Theatre at Midnight. Gonna be a long day & am not supposed to get sweat in my eyes.
We'll see how it turns out. what's the worst that could happen? I could earn disability for the rest of my life.
