I wonder if I miss the shimmer because I'm blind in one eye? I lost most of the vision in one eye due to an accident with a pair of scissors (yeah, yeah... don't run with scissors, blah blah) when I was six years old. Gahd dammit! Soooooo jealous!

Really? You guys must save a ton of money on hallucinogens.
