    I dunno. Doctor or something?
    Because they were dilated when I went to sleep and when I woke up.

    They were dilated on purpose by an optometrist.

    Cursive is pretty useless. If you are horrible at it you can't read it and if you are amazing it it, you still can't read it.

    No one actually reads any handwritten documents anymore anyways.

    Writing in cursive is like running a mile backwards. Sure it's neat that you can do it, but it's still not anything to write home about.

    Speaking of writing in cursive, my cursive signature is just the first letter of my name written in cursive followed by a squiggly line, then the first letter of my last name, followed by another squiggly line, and a straight line over that to indicate there is a T somewhere in there.

    Sort of the same, except I have a McName, so I bother to stop and capitalize both letters. And it ends it an "l", so it usually looks like one. You know, I always wondered why people expect you to sign your name the same every time. I never do.

    Cursive is going away though, because everything now has to be typed out. It's actually a little annoying. Not that cursive is going away, because screw cursive, but that everything pretty much is required to be typed.

    I used to write out my whole name when signing things. Boy was I a silly kid.

    I have been working on a new signature for some odd reason, mostly because mine is two sets of squiggles.

    I don't ever write in cursive. Not because I think cursive is bad or anything, just my handwriting is already atrocious. No one should be forced to read it, let alone in cursive.

    I think cursive writing should be appreciated as a style of writing, but is it necessary in everyday life? Nah.

    Also I don't mind typing everything out. I'm a pretty fast typist and like I said, my handwriting is awful. It's just easier on everyone, I think.

    You're left handed, right? Cursive is hell for anyone who's left handed, coming from a lefty. It's not fun at all.

    I am indeed left handed.

    I always figured my poor cursive writing was just part of my naturally bad hand writing, though.

    I had no idea there was a type of lettering specific to engineering.

    To be fair, I don't think I've really ever seen another lefty with decent handwriting. My dad has pretty good handwriting, but that's because he seems to use the 'engineer font', which appears to have a tendency to look good no matter how bad your handwriting is.

    I am also left handed, writing and eating only though, and it wasn't hard, although I still didn't like it.

    I am not looking forward to trying to go to sleep. The sensation of driving while trying to fall asleep is not a good one.
