LOL yep, she's part of the daytime tv here, blegh.
The only debt I have is my student loan, my husband and I got rid of any chance for debt quick smart. Had to buy a new car, paid it off in a year. Wedding was small, paid for that easy. Honeymoon was a big trip, but we made sure to pay for everything up front. Therefore, no unnecessary debt.

Awesome Guido I use contacts 99% of the time, with mine each pair lasts two weeks, but I sleep with them in and have 1 rest day a week where I wear my glasses. Only thing I hate with contacts is when you get a bit of dust or a tiny hair on the inside of them, big OUCH! lol. Doesn't happen often though, most of the time you don't realise you're wearing them.

Haha yeah, no worrys about smudges on glasses fuzzying things up and whatever. All nice n clear!
Lost my vision during high school. In my first year of high school (I think) a public health nurse came and tested the vision of everyone in my year. I had 20/20 vision. A year later, when I was nearly 15 I think, I was in biology class and suddenly realised I couldn't read the blackboard properly. So off to the optometrist with me LOL! So I lost my vision, or have been gradually losing it I guess, for 10 years (I'm 25 in october). What about you??

I wear my contact lenses about...hmmm... 40% of the time. In those few times I do wear them, I feel like touching the part of my face that my glasses would normally occupy just to make sure I'm not hallucinating! Plus I have those moments when I feel like running my finger up the bridge of my nose to push up an invisible pair of glasses!
See ya later, Guido!! Viel Glueck (good luck)!!

Awesome Guido I use contacts 99% of the time, with mine each pair lasts two weeks, but I sleep with them in and have 1 rest day a week where I wear my glasses. Only thing I hate with contacts is when you get a bit of dust or a tiny hair on the inside of them, big OUCH! lol. Doesn't happen often though, most of the time you don't realise you're wearing them.

That's true, I've heard stories of peoples eyesight weakening again - that's people who had laser eye surgery like when it first came out.
