My vision is around -5.00 to -5.50 diopter for both eyes at this point.

I got -3.00 for both eyes last time I checked. Might become bigger due to my tendencies to read things while lying.

My mom's side don't really have those problems, and only need reading glasses due to age. Mom herself doesn't need anything like that, and she reads stuff on her phone in the dark!

Dad's side, on the other hand... all four-eyes.

Actually, both sides of my family are largely non-four-eyes. However, both dad and mom wear glasses. For dad, it's because he used to read stories while lying to me and sister to get us to sleep when we are much younger (sorry dad :p) while for mom it's because of her old age.

There are times when all of us wear glasses at the same time when we go out, and sister has to distance herself for a few times while taking her own glasses of.
"Four-eyes family", she likes to complain :rofl:

Mom's the only one out of the 4 that doesn't need glasses, and she has the sharpest eyesight.

One time on a beach in the evening back in 2011, she lost her earring, which is actually pretty cheap itself, so it was not really a high-stake situation. But we figured that we would give it a try for 5-10 mins, since we were not in a rush.

3 of us (me, my dad, and my bro) was searching around with our torchlight. Mom, after 10 seconds, immediately pointed her finger at where the earring is sitting comfortably in the sand.

Wow, mom. :P

I've been thinking a lot about that somewhat stupid "American breaking point" thread and I'm reminded of something that actually would destroy America. If just two companies went under in less then a month, BNSF Railway and Union Pacific, we'd all starve to death. Well goodnight everyone.

Yeah, I'm actually kind of freaking out. I don't really know how this stuff works. I'm afraid it's gonna make my reblogs on Tumblr vanish. Reblogging cute stuff is one of the few things tethering me to sanity, and I'm panicking that it's all gonna go poof.

If it's been posted directly to Tumblr then it should be fine, but if a pic isn't then you might have some issues.

For safety I'd save or download any pic you're worried about.

That's like 5 years worth of stuff.

Okay, having a full on panic attack now. I could lose 5 years worth of reblogged stuff I like and look at when I'm feeling down. I gotta go. I'm having a meltdown.

Depends on where you are in the nation. But this is a very good and honest thought since year, the railroads are the life lines of many areas. However if you're near a major waterway, it wouldn't be a complete collapse.

I got that too. Luckily, I replaced most of my images with Imgur before the shut down, so there’s only a few left.

No it'd be a complete collapse, most of the food in America comes from those places. Plus food isn't shipped by rivers anymore in large enough quantities to sustain, well anything.
