This is the basic premise of this blog: I lie. A lot. And I've decided to write down every lie I tell, every lie I've told, as I think of them, or as I say them, or as I remember them.

You're welcome to submit your own lie. Tell me the lie, tell me the turth, and tell my a little bit about the lie. Why you told it. What you were thinking as you told it, if you were caught.

I'm not often caught, myself. I've been at it too long.

Lie #12

Lie: “I can’t see.”

Truth: “My right eye is a little blurry.”

I told this lie because I didn’t want to go to class.  I hate 8 am classes.  I’m not sure I want to be in this class, which is kind of bad considering it’s the evaluation class for my major.  But I’d been up until 5:30 AM working on art projects, that, admittedly, I procrastinated on, and my eyes hurt like fuck, despite the copious amount of eyedrops I put into them.

And did have a legitimate problem.  Something where your eye gets infected because of a respiratory tract infection. (I had bronchitis a few weeks earlier.)  So I even had a doctor’s note.  But I could see, all three days.  It was painful, and I had a migraine, and I was light sensitive, but I could see.

But, I ended up getting an extension on everything, I got out of class twice, and all my work is now complete.

So it’s all good.
