my double vision always seems to get the best of me
I finally shambled on over for an eye exam, after a couple years of eye neglect. I had not been looking forward to it, because, in addition to my near-sightedness, I have been increasingly in need of reading glasses. Ah, age.
I have been trying to have fun with the whole reading glasses thing — finding the silliest glasses I could find at the dollar store. In fact, my Big Ugly Glasses became the star of the show when I was in Seattle.
So. My eye exam lasted 20 minutes, and suddenly I was fitted for multi-focal contact lenses. Boom, I could totally see — close up, far away, everything. Comfortable, affordable, disposable. No weirdness at all. I have no idea how they work, but I am not questioning it. I can see. I can see!!
I’ll miss the Big Ugly glasses in fashion only.

You can visit my Big Ugly Reading Glasses any time you feel nostalgic!
Thanks, Vi! Your B.U.R.G. are perhaps the ugliest of all.
And by “ugliest” I mean “awesomenest”
Improvtastic!!
You pulled out those glasses to peruse the menu before explaining them and I was in awe. After the explanation, I was in love!
