Glasses! I've Got New Glasses! Check Out My New Glasses!



After an embarrassingly long time, I finally got my act together and looked into renewing my prescription and getting new glasses. I think the entire process (from booking an eye exam to picking up my glasses) took about two weeks, which is pretty good considering that the woman at Sears Optical told me it would take 8-10 days for my glasses to come in. It ended up taking about half that time, which is why I was able to pick them up today instead of some time next week. Anywaaaaaay, here's what's allowing me to see sharp edges again:



Front view. Notice the darker frame. It seems to be a little
more flattering with that round pale blob that is my face.




And look at the cool detail on the thingamabobs that, like, go over my ears.

Oh...uh...Hey, check out the cool new glasses:

I do like the new glasses. The getting of new glasses is always fun, it's the paying for new glasses that sucks. What we need is a glasses fairy to just drop them off. :)

Thanks, [livejournal.com profile] lazigyrl! I'm happy you like them! :-) Yes, the getting of new glasses is a lot of fun! The paying part does suck, though I'm very fortunate because I already got a good deal (50% off) and my work is covering part of the cost. All the same, glasses are expensive and a lot of people don't have vision care coverage. Therefore, a glasses fairy is an excellent idea! :-)
