      On a PC it's Ctrl Mouse Wheel. That's how I do it anyhow. There's probably another way. But I suspect Dianeva already knows this, so I'll just offer a

      I complain a lot about light too, but it's usually because it's too DIM. I use 100 wat bulbs whenever possible. I feel I can't see well enough using anything less. But I have perfect vision so it's all in my head. I will also RAGE against flickering lights. It honestly affects my mood. My old monitor used to drive me insane until hubby told me how to change the refresh rate. He was surprised I noticed as much as I did.

      My rant is that I am HOT but I broke my AC (hopefully not permanently). It's a wonder I've not been more sick. I was finally dusting it the other day and I noticed dust INSIDE behind the filter. So I pulled and pulled until the front finally snapped off (broke off is more like it). Somehow, condensation has been building in my unit and dust was crusted and hard over the coils. For the most part, it peeled off as if some sort of thick paper.
      Now, I have to scrub the filter and the face which I broke off. I can jerry-rig a way to keep it on if it doesn't snap back in place. I just hope it doesn't have some sort of safety feature which would prevent that (and I'm not going to try NOW because if it works without the cover, my laziness will keep me from cleaning what needs done). So I shall suffer the heat until I'm desperate enough to get to work.

      Another rant is that my cellphone has disappeared I've had it for over 5 years and I was JUST starting to remember my number lol. ALL of my contacts are in it. I last remember it being on the charger right on my desk. I checked my jacket pockets, jeans AND the car and I've not found it yet. I've also been cleaning out drawers and a pile of clothes. I flipped my mattress up to check under it. I am highly annoyed.
      It's just a throwaway tracphone so it's easily replaceable- I would just rather find MY phone.

      Note to self: Don't go on DV while sick and angry. Especially not ED, especially not the Inner Sanctum. It's rare for me to be so angry. I'm going to force myself off of DV until I calm down. I don't think I've ever made a post before now in which I'm so angry I'm actually trying to piss off the person I'm responding to as much as possible.

      Don't worry about it. In ED, there is the subconscious rule of forgive and forget. :l

      I'm basically squinting all the time. And people have lights on and I'm just like WTF? how can you need them on? It's bright enough.
      I never connected the two until now, but I guess that would be why.

      Good luck with your sore eye also. It could be a stye. Or infection/swelling from where you pulled the eyelash out.
      Also you should just get glasses. Resting your eyes is pretty much necessary with contacts, but obviously you need to see as well, so glasses help with both.

      Not that I'm suggesting this, but I wore glasses since I was like 2 years old or less even, up until about 16 or 17. I stopped wearing them coz this hot as girl liked me without them on lol
      But the point is, I swear my eyes have gotten better. It's been about 4 or 5 years now and I think my vision is clearer than ever, especially my left eye which was the worst one.
      Again, not suggesting it, and I had different vision problems to you anyway, but yeah.

      Oh wait.... Mouse wheel up just zooms in and it goes blurry, which would make it worse lol. Nvm lol

      I'm raging over freagin clothing tags again lol Those things annoy me WAY more than they should
      My daughter in the facility came home last weekend with LOTS of hand-me-downs. We're about the same size now, so most of them came to me So, I've been slowly cutting out all the tags. I can't find me seam puller (?) which means I've been using somewhat dull scissors which annoys me all the more

      I also can't recall my dreams. I only got a couple hours sleep for now- had to wake up early because I'm about to take my other daughter to check in with probation then take her to school- but I woke up too quickly.

      I ended up doing this, I've been afraid to go on DV for 19 hours, and now that I have the person didn't even respond. Maybe my point was made clear through insult? Hope so and hope not.

      I know you're right.. I've been meaning to get glasses for a while now. Even if they weren't better for my eyes, it would be nice to have them for before bed. Even if I got them I wouldn't wear them in public, I just don't have the kind of face that looks good with glasses, but I'm usually at home anyway.

      I stopped wearing them coz this hot as girl liked me without them on lol
      lol.. I stopped wearing makeup when I was 15 for a parallel reason.

      But the point is, I swear my eyes have gotten better. It's been about 4 or 5 years now and I think my vision is clearer than ever
      That's amazing, I'm glad it worked out for you that way. My eyes are irreparable now though, my prescription is too high. I've heard of people doing eye exercises to improve their eyes a bit, but it wouldn't be enough.

      I haven't heard of it either, but that would explain some things.. Anyway I didn't even know until I checked yesterday that the topic was in the Inner Sanctum. PhilosopherStoned had started the topic, and since I've witnessed in other sections that he's a pretty rational and knowledgeable person, I was interested.

      Yeah, I used to think this... But after a few years (and moving) I slowly started changing my mind. (It's just so damn convenient to be able to see!)

      I guess Yeah, that makes sense. If you use the new posts feature, or some such.

      They say dreaming is dead, no one does it anymore.
      It's not dead it's just that it's been forgotten, removed from our language.
      Nobody teaches it so nobody knows it exists.
      The dreamer is banished to obscurity.
      Well, I'm trying to change all that, and I hope you are too.
      By dreaming, every day.

      BAH! I ended up falling asleep at 4AM and I overslept this morning. Now the girls are late to school.
      I have to take my daughter to probation then come all the way back to the house (about 7 minutes lol) to pick up her friend, then drive them both to [each a different] school.
      Thankfully, I woke up on my own when I did.
      I was laying on top of my [new] cellphone lol which is used as a backup alarm clock. I turned my DSi off in my sleep

      **EDIT**
      My daughter tested positive for pot. She smiled as the Probation Officer told her. My daughter was asked what she thought was funny.
      We were done, so my daughter walked away and the Officer asked if I get onto her for "that". I thought she meant the smiling, so I told her it's a nervous response. She shrugged and said some people do that. Then she clarified and asked if I get onto my daughter for doing things she shouldn't. I said "Oh yeah!"
      Then I was asked if I stay with the "kids". She knows Zee is the only one at home. She then asked if Bobbi has been staying with us. In light of the question before it, I said: "I can't really answer that."
      She shrugged again (sort of threw her hands in the air) and said she already figured as much.

      Sometimes I wish I could lie like everyone else.

      The counselor came over whenever (?) to do the home evaluation. When we were done (2 hours of talking!) I told him I was determined to sugar coat everything, but I couldn't. I said "I'm painfully honest which seems to ensure my kids get taken." I told him that despite all our problems and my honesty, we [my family] works for the most part "and I don't recommend removing my daughter because she's a good girl and my kids return worse than before [when taken]."
      He said he could make a recommendation that she not be removed, but that his input was just a tiny piece of a much bigger process.

      After today, my daughter is probably doomed
      Idiot child.

      Last night I was trying to plug something in, in an outlet in the hall, and i saw this cord all tangled about so i picked it up and dropped it on my foot, it sparked and made a huge pop sound and electrocuted my foot, it turned completely black in one area which i had to wash off, that was painful. And now it's all red and blistered :/
      turns out the thing that got me, was a broken extension cord, it was plugged in, and the metal receptor things were out in the open because the plastic part (that you plug stuff into) was broken off. It hurt all last night but doesn't anymore.

      Also, I'm having really bad pain in my back. Ever since a bit before that happened last night (it was around 11) my back has been killing me with sharp pain. And i have plans tonight :/

      Thankfully, I woke up on my own when I did.
      I was laying on top of my [new] cellphone lol which is used as a backup alarm clock. I turned my DSi off in my sleep

      **EDIT**
      My daughter tested positive for pot. She smiled as the Probation Officer told her. My daughter was asked what she thought was funny.
      We were done, so my daughter walked away and the Officer asked if I get onto her for "that". I thought she meant the smiling, so I told her it's a nervous response. She shrugged and said some people do that. Then she clarified and asked if I get onto my daughter for doing things she shouldn't. I said "Oh yeah!"
      Then I was asked if I stay with the "kids". She knows Zee is the only one at home. She then asked if Bobbi has been staying with us. In light of the question before it, I said: "I can't really answer that."
      She shrugged again (sort of threw her hands in the air) and said she already figured as much.

      Sometimes I wish I could lie like everyone else.

      The counselor came over whenever (?) to do the home evaluation. When we were done (2 hours of talking!) I told him I was determined to sugar coat everything, but I couldn't. I said "I'm painfully honest which seems to ensure my kids get taken." I told him that despite all our problems and my honesty, we [my family] works for the most part "and I don't recommend removing my daughter because she's a good girl and my kids return worse than before [when taken]."
      He said he could make a recommendation that she not be removed, but that his input was just a tiny piece of a much bigger process.

      After today, my daughter is probably doomed
      Idiot child.
