I think you can guess how today ended up going from the post title.

The day started off pretty bad. I wasn’t able to settle and woke up early, to the sound of rain. I just stayed bundled in bed for awhile, put on the new Redacted ep before coming down.

The first bus was a disaster. First we got on and found that it didn’t go direct to the hospital (despite being like that weekdays. It didn’t even take us to anywhere we could change burs either. Of course I found out only after getting the daysaver which ugh so we got off, then I had a panic about losing the wallet (but found it again) but I did somehow lose the ticket.

The second bus, half hour later, was better, we could head to town and change a bus there (thankfully someone in front of us told us where to pick it up and it was right next to us). At the hospital it was… ugh. I saw a grand total of four people and kept being shifted around. Multiple tests were done and it’s clear from the first one how bad the right eye is (even with glasses I could only read the first 3 lines on the chart, with the other I could read almost seven). I was in the hospital for over two hours and most of the last hour was waiting for the last person. Which… ugh.

He did a test that had been done earlier in the day and then said I’d need to come back in 4-6 weeks for more tests, scans and a check of my glasses. Which ??? It feels like overkill and makes me wonder if they had saw something that needed checking. So ugh that’s more stress, but also I don’t see it happening that soon (with christmas and new year). But ugh. Plus I had to have drops which stung my eyes.

I did take things to do but couldn’t do much because of waiting to be called for various things. I did read one chapter of Halloween Party on the way and some articles in the Empire magazine, including one for Kwaidan which I found out is currently on Amazon prime! Hopefully I can see it.

We went into town and it was busy cause of lights being turned on. We did find where the Forbidden Planet was moved to and I got Exquisite Corpses 6+7, both of which had the cards which was nice (oddly though one was more than the other but I got my student discount). Alas they didn’t have Event Horizon 3 which is apparently a big seller. Which I love, cause Event Horizon is awesome and is cool it’s getting love, but it’s annoying I couldn’t get it.

I did get Until Dawn from the hmv Black Friday sale, so I will have to watch that sometime. I have been curious since I saw the trailer though I didn’t see it in the cinema alas. I also got Clown In A Cornfield at last (thanks hmv assistant for helping me, you were awesome!) which I’m looking forward to see again sometime. (Though I do wish it had special features but maybe they’re just not listed) if I’d had more I might have got weapons too but alas. Damnit why’re sales at bad times?

After going in a few other places we came home so now I’m flop. It does feel like it was a bit of a waste of time and now I have some more stress worrying about more tests (and not looking forward to going back, though should at least have free travel).

Now I’m gonna flop, watch strictly later and maybe watch the Wildhood special features, but maybe will just snuggle with Midna.
