Remember my crazy cousin, the one who threw herself out of a moving car and is now in jail? One of her older sisters (only 21, with absolutely NO MONEY, and a mama with NO MONEY, a daddy in jail, no job, and no babydaddy) had a baby today. She named her, get this, Bianca Marie. I'm glad it wasn't some weird soap opera name like Blakely or Peyton or Corinth or something.
I'm just so relieved that they're okay, because I had such a bad feeling today. It still hasn't really gone away, but according to my grandmother (who was there and practically delivered the baby herself, despite running for the hills at my birth) everyone's doing great. So, uh, wtf.
In other news...
Yesterday I went to Wal*Mart for an eye exam and found out that I am so, so, so blind. I knew I needed new glasses, I just didn't really realize how badly. And the glasses I have now are so beat up from, like, five years of wearing them that I had to get all new frames, which scared me because I'm really attached to these. I picked a pair almost exactly the same except in black, which I guess is more adult. And probably looks better than silver on my face. Anyway, these glasses are prescribed for 20/250 in the left eye and 20/300 in the right eye. My new glasses will be L: 20/325 and R: 20/350. For those of you clueless in the land of eyesight, that means I AM SO SO FREAKING BLIND, and am currently using glasses that don't work for me. I had an eye exam before the prom last year and my left eye was only 275 (no change for the right) so since last year I've had a crazy shift in eyesight.
My mother thinks it's so bad that she's cancelled my driving lesson for this week until I get my new glasses on the 13th. Which is, you know, pretty awesome, because I'm a horrible driver and I really hate driving :(.
