There's this crazy new machine at gym that apparently stretches and re-aligns your spine... Its quite a funky contraption. Looks like a long, flat board. You stand, with your back against it and push a button that moves something over your ankles to lock them in. Then you push another button and the machine turns itself upside down and with a great big woosh, all the blood in your body rushes straight to your head.

This is my new favorite machine! I have no idea if it actually does have any benefits but I don't care. It's just so much fun being upside down. The world looks so much nicer from there AND I get an instant tan in my face!!! I could have stayed there for an entire hour this morning but my fat was actually ASKING to be gotten rid of, so rather reluctantly I turned myself right side up, left my super machine and did some light cardio instead.

I have now been back at gym for TWO whole days!!! Go me!!!! And you know what! I am sore!!!! I haven't even done that much so I am really scared for when I do start gymming properly... oh the pain!!!!!! Okay, I'll stop moaning... I know it's actually good pain. My body, for one, is VERY happy to be back at gym :) I just have to get used to these early nights / early EARLY mornings again. I had forgotten how to sleep drive. I must learn to do that again too!!!

I have to get new glasses :( I went to the Optometrist yesterday after work and he did all sorts of strange tests on me. Basically my right eye has deteriorated quite a lot and my left eye only a bit. My left eye used to be REALLY bad (but I had my good right eye to compensate). Now both eyes are almost equally as bad. No wonder I can't see these days... I just thought that everything around me was supposed to be blurred.

I asked the optometrist chap if I could do the laser eye surgery thing and he said that he doesn't recommend it because my eyes aren't bad enough... How bad is bad enough??? I can't actually see well at ALL without my glasses... I also asked about contact lenses and he tested the health of my eyes to see if I could wear them. My eyes are not healthy. I am going to take out a gym membership for them soon. They must sort themselves out. I think they have been smoking in secret... BAD eyes!!!

SO I am just getting some new frames and new lenses and hopefully this time next week I will actually be able to see again.

I have already drunk about a liter of water this morning... so I must go and rid myself of some of that water and say farewell!!! weeeeeeeeeeeeeee
