It's so nice to be right

Lately, I've been noticing how much closer I have to be to signs and the like to read properly. First, I assumed it went for everyone, but after a while, I couldn't help but notice how others were able to recognize buildings and stuff like that much sooner than me. Finally, and of course because I always feel extra-sexy when I wear someone else's glasses, I decided to go get my sight checked out. And loh and behold: I'm near-sighted.

The best part of it though, is that I don't actually have to get glasses. Even though I'm near-sighted, it's so little that I notice it, but not bad enough that she'd recommend glasses just yet. So I still have 2 years to come up with the money to pay for these glasses.

Now, if only the actual test didn't cost me a bundle, life would be good. Then again, food is for people who want to get fat, and subway tickets are for people who don't like excitement in their lives. I live on the edge of starvation

Aww... and here I was hoping for pictures of Martine as a sexy librarian. :(

Well, I could still try and be sexy? Even without the glasses? ;)

I don't think you'd have to try very hard for that.

Yay! To make me feel the greatness of glasses, sjokoladepiken let me borrow hers while I´m reading at her place. They are pretty sexy though, but then again my nose tickles from wearing them so I guess that´s a trade-off.

I don't think mine have ever tickled my nose. Of course it could be because you and she have differently shaped faces and thus her glasses aren't properly fitted for you.

No, they fit perfectly, it´s just that I´m not used to the feeling of having something on my nose...

Ah, I got used to it somewhere around third grade...

I get that too.

It goes away after a few days. When I stop wearing glasses and switch to contact lenses for a long while; the next time I try on glasses they itch for a bit.
