So... more disturbing blogging. It's happening a lot lately, isn't it? I suppose someone has to blog incessantly. :D

I'll ramble a bit. Hmm. Today I went to the chemist's to buy some stuff for my eyes. If you know me, or have been reading this blog in secret for a while, you might know that I have problems with my eyes at certain times of the year. They get very dry and sore, you see. Plus my eyesight deteriorates.

A few years ago I went to the doctor's and he said I was allergic to tree pollen. He sent me to the hospital and they said my eyesight was okay, but my tear ducts weren't working properly. Last year when my eyes starting getting dry and my eyesight blurred up I went to the opticians. My eyes were healthy enough, but for the first (well, second, but I didn't really need them the first time round) time in my life I had glasses. Not for reading or for distances, but everything I have to concentrate on.

Most of the time my eyes are pretty good. I tend to wear my glasses for walking - I notice the benefits more with distances. But last week my eyes started getting dry again and I really noticed my eyesight getting worse. Now my glasses really make a difference. I suppose I didn't know this before because I didn't get my glasses until after my eyes had worsened. If you know what I mean. You don't notice things like that if it's gradual, but if you can put glasses on and it instantly improves, you notice.

So... working on the assumption that the "tree pollen" thing is true, I went and bought some allergy eyedrops. I don't know about the tree pollen theory, since it's not a particularly polleny time of year, but something's making it happen... And can it be coincidence that it started when the flowery things and trees starting blooming/budding and so on? Thinking about it, I think it starts this time of year every year, and finishes in the autumn/winter.

I think I'm allergic to flowers. That'd work. :)

Haven't done much else.

Harrison Ford is 60. How scary is that? I can't help but love him in things like Indy and Blade Runner and Star Wars, but now... he's old. I hate it when you see people in films and they turn out to be old now. People that were in the major films of my growing years, and now they're old.

Maybe Indy IV isn't such a good idea.

Especially with George Lucas's recent track record.

*sigh*
