ARRRGH!

Yet again, my glasses have broken!

Cleaning my glasses this morning at work, and POP! The frame breaks. In the same place that my LAST pair broke about 2 years ago.

So I called my optometrist to get my prescription in case I need to get new lenses. The receptionist tells me that my prescription has expired, and I'd need to get my eyes re-examined in order to release the information!

Wait... WHAT?!?!?

It's MY prescription, and my eyesight is good with my current specs. I have NO NEED to get my eyes re-examined. Yet in order to get my lenses replaced, I'd have to go in and spend $$$ to get my eyes checked again.

But I found 2 loopholes.

Loophole #1 - I called ProVision center in the Auburn Mall (where I got my last pair), and THEY have my current prescription on file. So if I needed to get new lenses, they have my script.

Loophole #2 - Mike (my friend since grade school), was able to track down a duplicate of my current frames. So therefore, all he has to do is pop my old lenses into the new frames. VIOLA! New glasses without all the expense.

It just irks me that I can't get my own eye prescription from the doctor.

Why do I even bother?

Can anyone out their tell me why women are so fucking duplicitous?

I'm tired of women telling me that I'm "A Nice Guy", and that They can "Tell me anything", yet the minute I show any interest in getting to know them any better (i.e. dating or what-have-you), I get the fucking "I just want to be friends" shit.

Actually - I think I need to be more of an asshole to women.

I've noticed that women tend to date people that treat them leek shit, and yet "They love them".
WHY? WHY? WHY? I can't wrap my analytical logical brain around that fact that women like to be treated that way, and - even worse - that they fall "in love" with guys who treat them like that.

How stupid can you females be? You say you want to be treated kindly and with respect, and you want someone that's caring and nurturing and is willing to listen. Then why in the name of Hell do you date the EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU ARE FUCKING LOOKING FOR?!?!?!

And to the ASSHOLE guys out there - thanks for ruining it for us nice guys. They say "Nice guys finish last"...

Well I'm certainly proof of that.
