Good Ole Four-Eyes

Oh in other news....(man I have been slacking on here)...I GOT NEW GLASSES. Everytime I go in for an eye exam I walk out feeling well really dumb. I mean they make you take your current glasses off and try to read, which you know that you can't. Oh it is just embarrassing and well I couldn't afford new glasses before. I have something like -4.50 in one eye and -4.0 in the other. So you could say I am kind of blind, which means that I have to get high index lenses. This really doesn't mean much to me, but means lots of money to the eye doctors. At this last appointment the doctor told me that my vision had gotten better, but that I needed reading glasses. READING GLASSES!!!! I AM ONLY 27!!!! HOW CAN THIS BE????? The nice doctor told me it was just a suggestion and that it was so mild, that it wouldn't be necessary...yet. After a month of looking for glasses that looked like this...


I have settled on these....

Sure they are a bit dorky...but aren't glasses in general a bit dorky? I am just going to have to learn to embrace that inner dork...

Mary, I totally feel your pain. At my eye appointment last year I was informed I need bifocals. And I was only 23 at the time! hooray for the blind!
