today i had an appointment with the eye doctor; the optometrist. though i felt entirely confident in my eyesight, despite having not visited the optometrist since 1997, i began to feel nervous in the minutes leading up to the eye exam. when the check-up itself began and the doctor began shining bright lights into my eyes, i found myself blinking incessantly, unable to stop, and worried that there was something fatally wrong with me. 15 minutes later, i found out that my eyesight is just as good as it was in 1997. whew!
