The One In Which She Experiences Murphys Law
Murphy's Laws:
If anything can go wrong, it will.
If there is a possibility of several things going wrong, the one that will cause the most damage will be the one to go wrong.
If anything just cannot go wrong, it will anyway.
If you perceive that there are four possible ways in which something can go wrong, and circumvent these, then a fifth way, unprepared for, will promptly develop.

Mkay, so, in a previous entry long ago I wrote of how I passed out once and broke my glasses. I held them together with plastic nail glue until I could get new glasses. Which I did, and they were nice... until my husband stepped on them with his combat boots leaning down to the ground to kiss me(this was when we were waiting for TMO to bring our stuff to England for us). Those broke. So I've been wearing my older glasses, the ones that have been held together by nail glue. I'm really quite surprised they made it this long.

In anycase, today at work, I noticed that part of them was breaking again, that the nail glue wasn't holding it anymore. So I got some super glue, and attempted to fix them. Well, a small speck of super glue got onto the lens. I rushed to the bathroom, wetted a paper towel and tried to wipe it off. This only made the smudge much bigger and more noticable. A friend of mine asked me if she could try scrapping the dried super glue off with an exacto knife. I said, sure. I mean, they were already destroyed. That didn't work, but gave the lens additional scratch marks to the smudge of super glue.

So now, here I am with no glasses, and no contacts. The base wont be able to get me in to get a perscription for two weeks. But they gave me a phone number to some place off base who might get me in quicker. I tried to call, but no one answered. Apparently it's Bank Holiday for the British. They get like 14 Bank Holidays a year... just a random day off, for no particular reason. So I'll have to wait until tomorrow to set up the appointment, and then however long it will take to actually get new glasses or contacts. This sucks. Either I work, or drive, or do anything without glasses(which my eyesight is horrible), or I do it all with a smudge blocking my left eye and distracting me.
