Mission Complete, Beatch! ^_^

WooT!

Guess what I did?!!!
Well, guessing that I completed what I aimed to get done for today is absolutely correct-o-mungo!
I managed to not only get my eye exam, but I bought TWO stylish new glasses today (with the loving help of my dear half-sister Stephanie, my 'fashion' consultant), but I ALSO bought myself a digital camcorder!
Yaaaayyy!!!

I spent $520.33 for those two pairs of glasses. The eye exam cost exactly 70 bucks, and it had to be in cash, for the eye doctor.
I went to Wal-Mart for my glasses. They have a Walmart Vision Centre there, but the eye-exam doctor doesn't work for Wal-Mart, hence the reason HE had to be payed in cash.
I'll have to wait one week for those glasses to come in. They're being made and ordered as I type.
As for the camcorder... Ummm... Lost the reciept. Ah well. It was about $730, roughly. Totally worth it.
I'll be able to take up to 7 hours of continuous footage in high-quality, or up to 27 hours in Long Play (LP), or, crappy quality footage. Awesomeness!

I'm geeking out right now, playing with it, and currently uplaoding a sample video on YouTube. It took a while to figure out how to actually upload it to my computer (Istructions? Who needs those!?). I eventually figured it out of course, and am now happily typing away! Isn't it great!?

I celebrated my big expenditure today by spending even more money. I took Steph, my shopping buddy, out to Dairy Queen for some ice cream and food, then I snuck her down with me in my truck down to the river road, where I let her practice a lot of driving. I took her out to a back-road highway, where the speed limit goes up to 80KM, and let her have some fun. She does good, really.
I also bought her some new foundation make-up that she wanted at Walmart.

Pudgy, my cat, totally spazzed today. She crawled into the bag with Stephs new make-up, and freaked out when she sniffed it. She got caught in the bag, and ran like a rocket all around my house, running into and up the wall even! I'm dead serious. My battery on my camcorder was charging at the time, and I completely missed it.
She's okay now, but my cat has always been skittish and easily spooked.

Anyways, still playing with new toys, so I'll check in later. Bye!
