Random Rants

Some things are so frustrating.

I get these contact lenses for my eyes that are 2 week disposables. They're special lenses because I have astigmatism so they're toric...meaning their weighted just so that they'll automatically position the right way on my eyeball.

Every 6 months I have to call in to refill these suckers right? The annoying thing is that they won't refill these lenses unless I take a stupid eye exam once a year. The last 5 or 6 years I'd go through these dumb exams only to find out my prescription hasn't changed a bit. Then I'm down between $100 - $200 paying for an exam I didn't need after all. I just hate spending money I don't need to.

Yesterday I go to the dentist for a cleaning. Because my current self-employment insurance plan doesnt' include dental, I ask them for the most basic routine stuff. I don't need the flouride rinse that costs $30 do I? Once again I didn't want to spend money unnecessarily. What do you know....the doc finds a small cavitiy and now I'm down another $150. Summammabeetch. Screw the cavity let my tooth fall off damnit!

OK OK, yeah a cavity has to be filled. But that eyeball exam is STILL a waste of money I don't care what you say my invisible head voice.

My fiancee tells me to move to Hong Kong instead. She says there will be nobody forcing me to look after myself over there.... yeah I get the point. Why did I find someone so sensible?
