Magic

My sweetie and I are going to the Magic game tonight. My company has season tickets, they're pretty good seats -- they'd be $65 if I had to buy them. I only get to go once a year, which is great for me since I don't care too much about the actual game itself. It's fun to watch, and I like the whole spectacle -- the dancers, the lights, the giveaways, the general air of excitement. Plus tonight is a designated cheat night, diet-wise, so I am looking forward to a big salty pretzel and a beer. Woot!

I'm also picking up my new glasses today. I absolutely hate my current glasses -- I got them before all the trouble started with my eyes, and never expected to have to actually wear them outside. I bought the cheapest frames with the cheapest lenses, and they suck quite a lot. My new glasses are much nicer, and I got the high-index lenses so my lenses will be much thinner. With my -9 prescription, my current lenses are so terribly heavy and thick, and the new lenses should be half the size. It's not as good as being able to wear contacts again, but glasses that don't suck will still be an improvement.
