I went over to the MVA earlier this week to start the process for a CDL (commercial drivers licence) and low and behold I couldn't pass the eye test.

This of course means a trip down to our Costco and an eye exam.

I need glasses!

I really never understood just how expensive these are. In my case I spent over $400 on two pair of glasses and the exam. Pretty big chunk of change.

Just turned 53 a few days ago. Doesn't feel that much different from 52 or 51 for that matter.

I bought myself an "ipod touch" and can see why people get attached to the things.

From the software to the profile and the way it reacts to your touch, the thing just works.

Like most Apple products.

I'm sold.
