What's yours?  Mine is my eyesight.  If these were ancient times, I'd be long dead by now (trampled or eaten).

Allergies. My nose doesn't stop running in the spring/summer months.

My eyesight as well.  I'm up in the minus 11/12 for power and extremely high in estigmistm (sp?)

Whoa, PL.  You're like me!  Do you need put on glasses to talk on the phone 1st thing in the am, too?

 I guess my knees.
If I was born in Sparta I would have probably been deemed 'not spartan' enough at birth and killed. (Spartans did that if a baby had deformities or defects or something).

True! SD would be such a big baby they would know to make armor for him they'd have to stitch two sets together and thus he would be a burden to the spartan military     :(

  I have no self control, but thats hard to see when you're looking at a baby so maybe they would have let me live.
For thou art with me; thy cream and thy sugar they comfort me
Thou preparest a carafe before me in the presence of Juan Valdez
Thou anointest my day with pep; my mug runneth over
Surely richness and taste shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of coffee forever.

 Talk on the phone in the am?  I don't talk on the phone in the am.

  I just put on my contacts.  I wear glasses in the evening to relax my eyes.  :)[/DIV]

Lise

Speaking of contacts, how do you put them on and not blink? I can't do that. It feels too weird. I can't even go for an eye exam without flinching.

Chocolate is my other weakness too.  

  My upper body strength is extremely weak...it's embarrassing. :(  but, i'm working on it. :)

oh major weakness my vertical is 8 inches.  Which explains why I can't dunk at sea level (went to colorado up into the mountains and I could air is lighter up there)

I dunno Lise.  When I first put contacts in, I had no problems and ever since, nothing.  I think that we were meant to be.  And I hated wearing glasses.  I had these gawd-awful glasses my mom thought was nice.   NOT!~  

Sportsdude

ever thought of lasik? My cousin had lasik and he can't believe the results.

purelife, glasses or no glasses, I think you're pretty hawt.

  I haven't worn any glasses yet, don't need them. Kinda scared because I know I'll need them somewhere down the road.

My coworker brought these magnifying glasses from Costco for cheap.  I had put them on and small words really jumped out at me.  They were awesome. :)  I'll have tell my mom about them because her eyes are starting to strain as well. :)    

  I don't think that you'll need heavy glasses like me, Lise, probably -1 or -2 that could be brought from Superstore for under 10 bucks or something.

  Lasik?  No, I'm not taking chances and messing around wth my eyes like that EVER!
