finally had my eyes examined and got my contacts today. i bought a year's worth. the insurance was awesome. paid little out of pocket. i can't believe i worked with such bad sight...these past few years. must take care of my eyes from now on.
next comes setting up my annual check up. i'm overdue. not looking forward to making an appt since it's usually a hassle to get in and most likely, the appt will be months away. pet owners don't know how good they have it.
Mom had her MR yesterday. still waiting for the doc to call us. we've left several messages. Mom is stressed out. not helping matters. they should know better. i thought for sure, he'd call today but alas, it's now past 10pm. surely he wasn't "in surgery" 'til now... it wouldn't be so bad except for that Mom has a brain aneurysm. she needs to know what's going on now, not a week from now. they should know that the wait is stressing her out.
i'll be making another call tomorrow if he doesn't call by 1pm

my sister surprised me with a frame of 3 pictures from when i ran the marathon way back in 2004. once i move into my new apartment, i'll hang it up. hopefully, it'll encourage me to move my butt. i have been going to dance class every thurs, but didn't go tonight because i got out of work too late this morning. work last night was good even though the assistant got hurt and had to leave. it was just me and the doc and the patients. we handled it well. i bet, though, he's a little sore from mopping. yes. this stellar doc helped clean and did laundry. he rocks!

finally got the dvd of Robin Hood with Russell Crowe from the library. loved it. a great version, and i've seen a lot of them. Errol Flynn and Olivia De Havilland still rock though...
still reading the Girl with the dragon tattoo...okay caps are out the door....
burned the Beatles Help cd. i think i have over 150 songs of theirs.

tomorrow, it's back to the gym. apartment cleaning and weeding/throwing out junk i don't need or use. this will make it easier to move. not sure yet who i can ask for help. i can move the small stuff all by myself although, i am dreading it already. moving sucks. there is nothing much else to say about it.
the weather (dare i say it and jinx it) has been nice and warm. warm for nyc in feb that is...we'll take 40 man, 40 is good. it's supposed to be even warmer tomorrow. wow. maybe this groundhog business isn't so silly afterall.
phil. i'm believing in you.
;-)
ciao!
