I can't see

The clarity was (and is) mindboggling, especially when you're in a location with 80-100 feet visibility. They cost me about $125, but that was about ten years ago, so they probably cost more now.

The snorkel, mask, and fins were 40 for me now.

I spent a lot more than that, but I never bothered to buy my own wetsuit or regulator--you have to carry all that stuff with you which is no fun. Nowadays the only think I bring with me on a dive trip is the mask. I also have one of those cool knives with a serrated five or six inch blade with an ankle strap. I remember taking it on a plane in my carry-on luggage around ten years ago on an international flight. How times have changed.

I'm brown. That would have ended hilariously.

I completely forgot it was there until the plane landed. . . . I think I got away with it because the flight left from an island known for diving, with a pretty small airport, and was flying into the U.S.

Cozumel? I remember you saying you went there before.

I think it was Bora-Bora.

but it's not even a nuisance. you don't have to take medication, you aren't physically limited, you don't need surgery, it's not dangerous like, say, food allergies. If I had to choose one condition to have, nearsightedness would probably be at the top of the list.

I know what you mean though.

Feel bad for you guys.

Why do you feel bad?

It's not like we're severely disabled. I just have to wear glasses occasionally

Morally, Anyway
