That show is still on? I knew there was a reason I never watch TBS.

Only an hour and a half!

TBS constantly flashing either the "100 years since a World Series win" graphic or the "24 of 28 teams that win game 1 of the division series win the series" graphic.

Jerks.

Waiting three weeks for my new set of contacts because I have such crappy vision my right eye was on backorder and finally picking them up today only to find out that they don't even fit correctly so it'll be yet another week.

I know exactly what that feels like. I also have a bad case of astigmatism to add to the mix and I think I've just learnt to deal with less-than-perfect fit contact lenses :(.

Well, hopefully they'll get it right next week!

Yeah my astigmatism is pretty bad which is why they couldn't just give me a temporary pair.

I too have an astigmatism but I can fit most soft gas perm contacts out of the box...but I switch back and forth between glasses and contacts because my eyes get tired in contacts all of the time.
Hey, nice marmot!

The word "utilize".  Use the word "use" and save two unnecessary syllables that make you sound like a corporate tool.
