Since I start work on Monday, I figured I should try to get errands done this week. I tried to schedule a dentist appointment, but they didn't have any availability until two weeks from now. I may be able to reschedule that for Good Friday. I also wanted to use my massage gift certificate now and I needed to get an eye exam because I'm almost out of contacts.

So, yesterday I scheduled an eye exam for today at a place 3/4 of a mile away. I walked there this morning and it took maybe 15-20 minutes to get there. It wasn't that bad of a walk at all. There were plenty of people walking around and I felt pretty safe. I also had a chance to stop at a Wells Fargo ATM right across the street from the eye doctor to get some cash. Anyway, I got my eye exam and a prescription for contacts. They ordered them for me and will be shipped to the apartment next week sometime. It only cost me $46 for everything thanks to Troy's vision insurance through his job.

It's so ridiculous that eye prescriptions only last for a year. I hate going to the eye doctor every single year just for them to tell me my eyes are the same. Hopefully within the next 5 years I can have Lasik so I don't have to deal with glasses or contacts again any time soon.
