So the worst month of my life is now heading into week six. Anybody got any good news? Share, please.
New Face, 2019 edition
I have trouble believing that it has been over a year since the last time I embarrassed myself trying to find new glasses, but it has! And once again, I am bound and determined to find A New Look, even though all other available New Looks make me all itchy.
This was only the first place we went to, so it’s possible that none of these will be the choice, and it’s also still possible that I go with identical frames to the ones I have, because I do actually like my current frames. But what the hell! Let’s experiment! In ascending order of Radical Departure from My Current Face:
Nearly identical to my current glasses, but in blue. For whatever reason, I seem to have decided that gunmetal and/or black glasses don’t look right and so everything I liked enough to take a picture of ended up blue. The only real change here would be the color.
Also, no comments on my beard will be entertained. It was a stressful day.
A slightly subtler blue, and similar lens shape, but eschewing the completely frameless look I went with last year.
Brighter blue, bigger lenses than what I’m currently wearing, and continuing to be half frameless. I like the color of these the most but Bek didn’t like the shape of the lenses.
WHOA WHAT IS THIS MASSIVE RADICAL DEPARTURE WHO EVEN IS THAT DUDE
Still blue, though. It’s all about blue this year.
Feel free to vote, or comment, or whatever, if you like. Ultimately my wife probably gets the final call– she has to look at them more than I do– but I still wanna hear what y’all think.
Bonus picture of the boy, in frames I think I tried on but didn’t have the guts to be photographed in:
He doesn’t get a vote, but these were his favorites.
(Why are they all Oakleys? Good question. I tried on another dozen pairs other than these from a variety of other brands, but these guys seem to have my tastes dialed in, for whatever reason. I didn’t deliberately seek them out or anything like that.)
I got nothing tonight, sorry
I like this song way more than I ought to, and my wife really hates it, so of course I’m gonna make y’all listen to it too.
Writing question for y’all
WordPress should have some sort of built-in poll functionality.
