Pregnancy can make you a bit crazy at times.
My glasses broke 2 weeks ago - the frames just broke in 2. In our pursuit of a welder, we lost one lens, and thus began the search for affordable new glasses in a foreign country. I was hoping to use the old scotch-tape method until we got home this summer, but the loss of the second lens prohibited that dream. I was pretty relaxed about finding a new pair until I started imagining going into labor for 10 hours and then asking the doctor to hold everything as the baby's head was crowning so I could put my contacts back in to see her!
Because my eyesight is so terrible, I received quotes from $150-$1000! On my second day of searching, we were treated to tea at every shop we entered. Such hospitality! But when you're trying to get in-and-out of as many places as possible to price compare, it means that you get sugar shock from all that tea! ;) We finally found a suitable, affordable pair that has made my 3am wakings much more pleasurable. I can read my book for 20 minutes and then fall back asleep, rather than staring into nothingness for 2 hours wishing I could see something. :)
Last night I had a nightmare that two poisonous lizards came into our bedroom and bit me once in each leg. I got mad at Rick that he didn't slice their heads off before they bit me. Once awake, Rick attributed this dream to watching Crocodile Dundee before bed. Ah, pregnancy hormones.
