Ramblin' About Medical Stuff

Most people reading this (Hi John and Laura!) probably already know that I got my eyes examined today. I vlogged about it in my YouTube persona, and kept it light and chipper.

I found out today that I have some corneal scarring because my eyes don't close fully when I sleep, and they're all dried out. My doctor wants me to put in this eye ointment at night and shut my eyes closed with surgical tape. At first, I was kinda amused and thought "Hahaha I'm such a dork! This is like a night brace." But now that I think about it, I'm a little annoyed.

I've had my fair share of medical problems, although this is pretty minor in the scheme of things I've dealt with. Sometimes I think it would just be really nice to not have scars, not have to take medications, and not be of below average height.

One of my biggest fears is that there aren't any men out there who could accept that I'm different. I'm about to turn 29, and it's making me a bit emo. My life is heading towards Miss Havisham territory, and I'm not liking it very much. Things could turn around in a moment... but the interim really blows.

Return of the Laydee

Well, well, well!!! What do we have here? Could it be Carrie blogging? Heaven forfend!

Welcome back to my highly neglected written blog. I have abandoned it for YouTube since around the time of my last post. Now I've got a small cult following. Isn't that nuts? Contact me privately for the link to my channel, because I don't wanna broadcast it out there.

So... what have I been up to? I have done some temp work around town, I was in a very short-lived but very happy relationship, I no longer wear my hair long, I still live in this crappy podonk town, I have an iPod touch and a Pink Razr. I suppose from the sounds of it life is good.

I am looking for work and trying to be roommates with my best friend. It's pretty slow going, but I'm like George Michael... I gotta have faith. Thanks George Bush for totally rawking at your job and making this an excellent economy in which to job seek!

It's a lonely life here, but my spirits are a bit brighter now. Maybe one day things will fall into place and I'll find a job, an apartment for me and my friend, and (please please please!!!) a nice man to love. I'm gonna be 29 in a few weeks. This single shizz is getting old, my friends!

Peace out everyone. I'll write more from time to time. I've forgotten how important the written word is.
