- I can't read anything up close, making it hard for me to know how long to cook my soups or take my medicine.
- I have a very hard time reading on computers.
- After looking at anything moderately bright, I struggle to regain focus (involving lots of bug-eyeing).
NOTE (reason for list): I have had to reformat this blog because the white-on-black is nearly impossible for me to read. Screencap of the old blog after the jump, if you're interested or nostalgic. Ideas welcome for new formats.
Hearing
- My right ear rings constantly (three simultaneous whistles).
- I have worn ear plugs to a concert and a football game in the past 4 months.
- The doctor said I have "significant hearing loss." (He also asked if I worked in a factory.)
Body - other
- My right knee creaks when I bend it.
- So does my neck when I turn it.
- I hold hand rails on stairs.
Misc. Taste in Things
- When UH bought 91.7 from Rice with the intent of changing it from a student-run station into a 24-hour classical station, I was so pissed. I signed petitions! But that was over 6 months ago. I am now totally content with my classical station.
- I also listen to jazz a lot (much to Julie's and Jon's disappointment).
- I love beets.
- My hair is hideous and I have no idea how it should look. Same goes for my clothes.
- I own CDs with 4 of the "awesome songs" Julie mentioned in the post below. (I guess I could have stopped at "I own CDs").
Kids today
- presented without comment
What the heck is that?
- Spotify
- Dubstep
- Lana Del Rey
- All these things that work through the TV (other than the Playstation and the Netflix, which my brother got me hooked up on like I was already in a nursing home and now I am that old person who can work that one device perfectly but don't change anything!!!)

Another tidbit. The star of my high school football team (when I was a junior and Julie was a sophomore (in the pep squad (!))) has a son playing in the national championship game.
