This morning, I woke up to find that my glasses were missing from the nightstand. Sometimes, I knock them over in the middle of the night, so I wasn’t too worried at first. However, after feeling around for a bit, I came up with nothing. Now, anyone of you who has tried on my glasses knows just how blind I am without them. So if I was going to find them, I was going to have to get out of bed and get down on my hands and knees so that I could search at a closer level. However, when I got out of bed, I found them immediately with the sound of a crunch. When I picked up what was under my foot, I discovered that I had cracked my glasses right down the middle. Ugh, I sure was feeling like Henry Bemis.
Well, I was disgusted with myself, but Apryl saw it as an opportunity for me to get new glasses. So I made an appointment with Pearle Vision and started looking forward to a new look. The examination went well. I was even told that my eyesight had gotten a little bit better! That’s a first. Afterwards, I shopped around for about an hour for new frames:
It was bit of a whirlwind, trying on frame after frame. So I couldn’t even tell you which one from the above that I actually chose. But it was approved by Apryl and the girl at Pearle. Unfortunately, the non-reflective addition takes 3-5 days, so I wasn’t able to walk out with my new look.
Instead, I was stuck with an old, old pair that had Apryl referring to me as Harry Potter. Evidence below:
Yikes, right? Perhaps I should have hidden behind the disposable sunglasses I was given after my exam:
Below, Apryl tries her best to super glue my old pair until the new ones are ready. Sadly, it didn’t work.
Fortunately, I was able to find an old pair of glasses that are less scary. So at least now, I don’t have to be embarrassed to go out in public.
