Can we talk shoes?
I have been wearing Saucony running shoes for years. I don't run. I realized that they just aren't right for my Zumba, Body Pump, and stair routine. I purchased the New Balance 813v2 cross trainer.

Who has had LASIK?
I went for my consultation yesterday and am scheduled for Nov 21st as long as my right cornea improves on exam on Nov 20th.

More questions for any LASIK people out there :)
So I am scheduled for next month, cornea permitting :) I was going to go for mono vision (100% in one and 80% in the other) to preserve some of my up close vision, but with research I have found that I don't think that would be a good decision for me. I am pretty OCD about stuff and trying to adjust to that seems risky. I…
