I went to the eye doctor for an annual check-up yesterday (where lo and behold, my nearsightedness actually improved slightly?), and ended up deciding to go back to wearing contacts more often. I ended up mentioning to the doctor that the main reason I didn't wear contacts much was because with contacts, it bugged my eyes and would give me a headache when I was reading or on the computer, as I couldn't take them off like I usually would with my glasses. She suggested that I buy a pair of inexpensive reader glasses that had a power of +1.25, as they would negate what I'd be seeing with my contacts in, making it so I'm seeing what I would normally see without any contacts or glasses.
Mind you, it's all rather odd and slightly confusing to be buying a pair of glasses in order to wear contacts more often, but it should work out in the long run.
There is also an amazing magical food cart/bus in Portland that sells grilled cheese sandwiches, including one called the "Cheesus Burger" (a hamburger patty mashed between two grilled cheese sandwiches) and "The Fat Elvis" (peanut butter, grilled banana, and bacon on white bread). It's really fantastic.
(also, AdBlock for Safari, where have you been all my life? Not seeing any ads is so nice right now!)
