Happy Wednesday

I just got off a chat talking to a 1800contacts representative who was incredibly nice. I thought I’d be talking to a system robot with automated responses but it was a real person! I had no idea what I was doing because I myself don’t wear contacts and since both my younger brother and sister needed to order them but didn’t have time to call, I told them I’d do it…when in actuality I had no idea what I was doing. Powers, axis, prescription, astigmatism all different for right and left…ahhhhh…the representative was nice enough to call the eye doctors for me and get all the info. All I had to do was get the direct link to order and input the info. So helpful!!! He signed off with saying “have a fantastic day!” You too Mr. 1800 contacts representative, you too!
Anyway, that was a mini highlight of my day. Another one I’d like to share is that Yuri and I decided to get dad a new tv for his birthday!!!! This is a big deal because we never buy big presents for our parents. My dad goes by the lunar calendar so the date changes every time. This year, it falls on Valentine’s day so we have to buy it soon. I’m looking on bestbuy and since the tv will be replacing the one in the bedroom, it is not too big. I’m looking at a Samsung 32” tv. We also want to buy a cable that can link the tv with his laptop, since my dad watches movies religiously on his laptop and even more so after I subscribed him to Netflix. And I am serious. He even watches a movie while he gets ready for work. I love movies too but I am not sure if I would be up for that! Anyway, researching cables was another whole new different world, kind of like the contacts world that I visited earlier today. HDMI, VGA, RCA, different audio cables….whaa? Today made me realize that I need to learn and be familiar with a lot more things than I imagined.
