agoodwinsmithSqueeee!
I don't care how old you get, new glasses are exciting. :)
Anyhoo - I really like the young optometrist who did my eye exam. Young and smart with a decent sense of humour. Also: knows her bum from her eyebrows, which I cannot report truthfully about others who are unnamed but not forgiven.
Also: sometimes this being old schtick has benefits. I am replacing lenses in my distance glasses, and getting a whole nother new frames and lenses for close up work, all for less than $900.00 (CAN) which is just boggling. On the other hand, I *did* used to buy my glasses from *the* place on Granville that served the stars. Really knowledgeable people, and they have a selection of frames that makes you drool, but, hey, Granville Street rents, yes/no? Also: your glasses may have rubbed temples with the ones bought by Robin Williams. I mean.
Today I am making a potato salad to take to a picnic later today in the now freezing and dripping Herald Park. Just waiting for the components to cool so they don't melt the dressing. Oh - there goes my timer.
