again with the glasses

For all five days that I was waiting for the glasses I was VERY concerned that I would look like this in ALL of my pictures because I didn't remember asking about/paying for Crizal lenses.



I think it turned out okay. Again, why do I spend so much time worrying about crazy things??

my eyes

My eyes hurt for some reason (particularly my right one). Pick your favorite/best guess as to why.

1. I'm tired.
2. I want an excuse to take a nap and stop reading/doing homework.
3. I got one of the many cleaning products I used to clean the bathrooms this morning in it on accident.
4. I didn't really drink coffee today and my eyes are lazy and used to having caffeine to help them stay open.

new glasses




Yesterday was shower day and today is homework day (which I'm clearly working on diligently), so I'm not looking my best in the shots from today.

But these are my new glasses!!



I received my first pair of glasses when I was in the 2nd grade. I was a novelty because I was the only one. My friends held their fingers up across the room to see if I could tell how many they had. I informed them smugly that I "wasn't blind." There is now now way I could even tell WHO was standing at the end of the room much less if they HAD fingers.

Anyway, in fifth grade I got contacts and have since that day mostly only worn my glasses to bed.

Until now. I'm going to try to wear these every day. So far? Fine (I got them yesterday). I'm worried about the months in the summer when the sun is out and I want to wear sunglasses. These aren't transition lenses and the flip ups aren't going to do it for me either.

P.S. I love my eyedoctor people.

renewed love

I don't want to ruin the surprise but you should go to a Starbucks tomorrow and buy yourself something to drink (A TREAT, that drink you feel have to talk yourself into or find an excuse to buy. I told you you had to go- so you have to go).

Then look at your cup.

I've lost some of my faith in this corporation I work for. I have loved my job the entire time, but some things have made it a little tougher and we've felt a bit stranded by the higher-ups for quite some time now.

But the cups!!

Love. Love for Starbucks. Which reminds me that my Starbucks card is out of money again. Which may tell you how addicted I am... considering when I'm working my drinks are free and I usually work least 3 times a week. Whoops.
