Oh Paris!
June 6, 2007I have never loved the girl but now that she's in jail — even reporting days early — I feel a new respect for her.
Hopefully, she uses this time to ponder on the merits of wearing underwear and why she must make sure she has in her custody the one and only copy of her future sex videos (so she gets all the profits, of course!).
Oh Paris, what I would kill to have your money! And you don't look too bad, either. If you had some good sense in you, you'd be perfect. But then again, you're probably thinking, Who wants to be perfect? I just want to have fun!
Against my better judgment, I am actually expecting to see a more subdued and more sensible Paris 22 days from now.
I Can See Clearly Now
Despite the many ways the average American life is made easier by high-tech gadgets and machines and idiot-proof processes, there are things that the Philippines does so much better — and with less expense too!
Take for example the matter of getting contact lenses. Here, I had to go through a contact lens fitting that cost me $75 under our insurance coverage. Now that the husband has moved to another job — and we are under a different coverage — I have to go through the whole process again and pay $95, even though I told them I am still fine with my old contact lens prescription and I just need a few boxes because my supply is running out. No can do.
Back home, the so-called contact lens fitting, which simply means having you try out different kinds of contact lenses until you find a brand that's comfortable for you, would have been free of charge (back then, anyways) and getting a box of contact lenses would have been as easy as pie. Sigh. I miss De Los Reyes Optical. Hahaha!
Anyhoo, I've found a way to circumvent the whole process. I can just get my contact lenses online and I won't have to pay that darn $95 fee! Online shopping is the bomb, don't cha think?
