Woo ... I got some glasses.
I didn't realise quite how utterly terrible my long-distance vision was until I wore them around for a bit. And I've been learning to drive for about 6 months, only beeing able to read stuff when it's 3 foot away.

They're squareish, rimless ones - rather posh.
I look at once about 20 years older in them, and somewhat more intelligent (or do I ... I'll bet that's just through endless years of droll media sterotypes ramming expectations into my poor, fragile mind. Goddamn facists.)

I did actually wear glasses when I was about 5 ... what terrible memories.
I had to do eye-patch test thingies to improve my focusing - and was only ever allowed to play Duck Hunt to do so. Mario would have done the job, I know he would've.
Goddamn facists parents.

And ... er ... I got 2 cleaning cloths instead of 1.
pwned.

I just spent the whole journey home taking them on and off and reading stuff. It was, like, the best thing ever.

yup

No, the masters of Vision Express.
I did actually get an eyetest at Spacksavers last summer, they said there was nothing wrong. Idiots.

Although they do employ the most beautiful women in the world, so I couldn't be mad for too long.

Ha, that's what I did!

Although I never wear my glasses out of the house, that's what contacts are for! You'll love contacts even more than glasses. You can go anywhere and see perfectly, wooo!

My old optician was brilliant. I think he was Russian and he looked like the sea captain from Tintin. [URL] http://tintin.eugraph.com/tqsect/wriquiz/quest/stick.jpg [/URL]

I couldn't help but laugh whenever he did the test with the lens that gets flipped over and you have to say which side is clearer, first or second. He'd stare at me in his evil Russian way as he did it and his accent as he said "First or Second?" was excellent.

I lost my cloth and my glasses case, I've been cleaning my glasses on my shirt for months now. I'm sure I'll make the 20 minute walk to the opticians one day.
