I have come to the conclusion that Life has many adventures, some anticipated , some surprise us and still others just come out of the blue. At the constant, gentle, never ending, persuading, and or push from Sue, Homme Dad made two appointments in the past couple weeks. #1 the ever pleasant Physical ( apparently I was long over due ) #2 was the Eye Appointment ( again, apparently long over due. ) So wanting to honor the concerns of my loving spouse or possible just to stop the ongoing question ( have you made the appointment ) I decided to get it over with.
The Physical : how come you need to make an appointment, wait 2 months and when it comes it takes maybe 5 minutes. The usual questions from the Dr., how do you feel, have you any concerns, any family history issues ( I felt I may just ask him about my son and the fact he has a fish growing on his side?) But before I could get him distracted I heard the snap of Latex and the words- lay down and roll over. Yes Sue , I made the appointment and all is well.
So the eye appointment comes and it appears Sue who went first felt the need to tell the Dr. that she had to make the appointment and drag me in by the ears. As I walk in he asks if I have an issue with eye Dr.'s, I tell him I have no problem I feel everyone needs to see one every 46 yrs weather they need it or not.
And what's with the looking into some over exaggerated binoculars while they blast air into your eyes? Apparently this is to test the strength of yous pupils - What - they think perhaps a low flying humming bird may have a head on with your eye? Maybe we need to be walking around with face masks. And what if the eyes aren't strong enough - now you have a freaken air embolism on your brain, not to mention the eyeball floating around in your head.
Anyway I subject myself to this drama just to hear what I knew - Well Dave if you haven't needed glasses for 46 year you probably don't need them. I am ready to pounce on Sue with the all knowing I told you so, except he wasn't finished ... BUT - it appears reading glasses are necessary - he flips all kinds of filters in front of my eyes to prove his point. I am absolutely sure I could smelll the butter coating the lenses so that things looked fuzzy.
So $260.00 later I will be getting glasses that I don't really need, but wear them cause I paid for them. The story continues - I went today to pick up the $260.00 glasses that I don't need - well except for reading, I jump into ( Sues new Truck ) and pull out of the parking lot with the head light assembly of the unoccupied vehicle parked beside me. As I realize this noise was not normal I look to the right - What the hell does he mean I don't need glasses!!!!!
