Kepler's Trap Card (Day 4426 - 1/6/22)

Previous Vlog (Day 4425) | Next Vlog (Day 4427)

After opening up on a shot of Mallory giving Kepler some attention, Stephen says that he went to the optometrist for his annual exam. He says that his prescription didn't change and notes that his prescription is the same in both eyes. He goes on to say that he's been wearing the exact same pair of glasses since before he started the vlog, meaning that this pair is over 13 years old. As a result, Stephen wants to make 2022 the year he gets a new pair of glasses. Because he's been wearing glasses for the better part of the last 2 years instead of contact lenses, Stephen wants to get a new pair.

Stephen continues and says that when he was talking to his optometrist, she said that if Stephen was a truck driver, she would bump up his prescription from -6.50 to -6.75, but because he spends most of his time staring at a computer, the optometrist wants to keep his prescription at -6.50 for as long as possible. Mal mentions that the optometrist always makes comments like that. When she's looking at Mal's eyes, the optometrist says that her eyes are very consistent and says that Mal is into art or design where her eyes are visually focused on something. Stephen says that he's never met a doctor who's been as passionate about their work and is excited about their work as this optometrist. They also mention that she has a really good memory. During Stephen's appointment, she brought up the last time she saw Mal and how they talked about the fantasy sumo wrestling tournaments. Stephen is taken aback by this as she saw them almost a year ago and sees so many people. Stephen says that his memory is the opposite so he's incredibly impressed how someone can remember such things.

Stephen says that he and Mal plan to record November's mail video later tonight, and it's the only thing that they give to Dan physically instead of sending it over digitally as the files are very large. Stephen is also excited to have some Japanese stir fry for dinner tonight.

After recording not only November's mail, but also December's mail. Stephen thanks everyone for sending in mail and excited to have some of the food that was sent in.

After mail, Stephen and Mal prepare their stir fry and enjoy it on the couch. Stephen says he's a fan of dishes that have rice, vegetables, and meat dishes as they're hearty. Mal said that she made quite a bit of food as she needed to buy a lot of ingredients to use up all of the vegetables she bought.
