April Fools

 Ah yes, April Fools. The first day of April where everyone pulls pranks and shouts "April Fools" at the top of their lungs afterward. You may be wondering how this holiday came into effect, or you may already know. I myself began wondering how it was started after a friend asked me if I knew.

Everybody remembers Christmas, some people just don't choose to celebrate it. Anyways, I'm getting sort of off-track, onward with the facts!

Imagine losing your sight when you've been seeing your whole life! I need my eyes to work -- to write this blog. I'm writing this wonky story with a humorous twist to make myself feel better about it. Anyways, without further ado, I will try to summarize this high-stakes action into four parts. Part 1 - Innocent Eye Check-up It all started with an eye appointment on January 22, 2022... I thought it was just going to be a harmless little check-up where I could trust the doctor's judgment. I'm not going to state where this eye exam was because I don't want to get canceled. Anyways, after a rather stressful examinatio...
