Eye Exam

Last night my hubby and I went to get our vision exams. The people in the office were delayed since some of the power was out in the building. So, my hubby was seen about an hour past his original scheduled time and I was seen about 10 minutes after him. But, the doctor more than made up for it! I don't think I have ever had a faster eye exam!!! I probably wasn't with the doctor for more than 5 minutes. I know it had something to do with my non-changing prescription, but still, a 5 minutes examination for $40?! I def picked the wrong job field! :-) Fortunately though, I don't have to go back for another 3 years. Since my prescription hasn't changed in two years, and didn't change much from 4 years ago, I can wait a bit longer before paying someone $40 to look at my unchanging eyes.

Btw, even though he was only with me 5 minutes, the doctor found a freckle on my eye. Weird, huh? I have freckles all over my body, and now I have one in my eye! Craziness!!!

So anyway, my hubby and I took like 600 hours picking out our new frames after the doc saw us. It's a very important decision ya know! These new glasses are going to have to be worn for the next 2-3 years! That's a lifetime if you don't like them!!! But I got myself some flexible frames for the first time. I thought that since we are having a new little one in the house, that it was about time for me to prepare for little grabby hands.

Then, as we were getting ready to head towards the register, an eye tech asked when I was due. When I said October, she looked surprised. She told me that that I looked like I was ready to have a baby within a week or two! A week or two!!! What the....???!! Is she serious? Those who know me outside of blogland, do I really look that big?? I've only gained 8 pounds so far (according to my doctor), but do I really look 9 months prego??

But, why would someone say that anyway?? The eye tech knew I was due in October, so why tell me that I look that far along? I not really taking it as in insult, but why say something like that? I feel like I should be more offended, but should I take it as a compliment? Someone noticed I was very prego instead of very fat...so that's good, right?! It just struck me as weird.

Oh well, have a great weekend everyone!!!
