the great failed contact experiment

After a week of trying a) the astigmatic contact in my right and b) the correct RX in my left eye we decided it was in my best interest to toss them both. Yes my astigmatism has gotten worse but the astigmatic contacts in addition to being irritating as holy hell are over correcting and I was having extremely poor vision in my right eye (which might have contributed to all the dizzy spells this week). And while it was nice to be able to read the subtitles in Grimm & Sleepy Hollow and see the channel guide from the couch, I decided I do FAR more close work than I do distance. I couldn't read my notes at work and cheap reading glasses give me headaches and make me dizzy if worn for more than a few minutes (Have I mentioned my vision/eyes are SUPER sensitive? I can tell tiny changes and shock every eye doc I've ever had). So until my close vision gets so bad I'm forced into buying good reading glasses this will have to do and if I'm going anywhere I need to read unfamiliar road signs I can wear my glasses.

I tried a new lab today, sense lab, smelling stuff. It worked pretty well. The students enjoyed it except one which we all agreed was an astringent cleaning fluid but was supposed to be 'roses.' Yeah, right. For some reason though the printed lab work sheets for the students had answers on them. Um....I didn't see that so next time I'll have to make different copies. Publishing fail!

OMG does ANYONE know an easy way to do a search on Windows 8. The standard search that comes with it can do 'everywhere' (which why do I need it to go on the net? That's what Google is for) or 'files'. I can't even make it go to a flash drive that way (You can if you go via the window explorer thing) but no option lets you search by 'word or phrase' in the document. It only lets you do file name. Like I remember that. I'm still trying to find lost files. This is so annoying. I found a few things online and they didn't work. Bite me Microsoft. I put it on my netbook but that only helps if it's on my flash.

Back to Vegas and making these damn vampires do something.
