This morning I had my vision checked. Both eyes are at 20/20. They didn’t push any farther. Although when the coordinator left the room, I tried myself. I could also read 20/15 now. The only thing is that now I’m on the computer, I still have astigmatism like symptoms. The doctor said that is normal. It will take a few more weeks before that clears up. At this point, my vision will fluctuate from time to time. That is just the normal recovery process. My vision will continue to improve. I should get my best vision in maybe 6 weeks.

I’m eager to take a walk outside tonight to see how my eyes respond to night lights. That’s something I had trouble with even with glasses. Before the surgery, my eyes were at about 20/400.

The fact that getting a 3 column layout in CSS is a feat of wonder is an indication that something is terribly wrong with the standard. Building this layout should be obvious, intuitive, and in no need of discussion. This is absolutely trivial with tables — the only difficulty being that CSS zealots are going to crucify you when you put it together 10x faster than they can.

I’m all for the semantic web, but the fact that people still can’t admit that CSS lacks a grid positioning system (allowing you to align content to other parts of the document tree) is why it still lacks such a system. Get off your high horse. Admit that CSS layout is inferior to tables in some cases and needs some revision, and maybe someday life will actually be easier.

On the other hand, we bought a printer!! Brother MFC-7840W Laser Multifunction Center with Wireless and Ethernet Network Interfaces is our new and FIRST printer. We bought it from Bestbuy for only $200. We never owned a printer before. It obviously is inconvenient from time to time. Now we’ve got a laser network printer that may act as a copy machine & fax machine. It almost feels like being spoiled. Hahaha!

After we purchased the printer, I did a little more research on it. I was surprised to find that we got an awesome deal (even without Andy’s employee discount since it was on sale) and the reviews for this printer are very positive. Hurray!

What was I thinking………
