New shades
Permalinks to this entry: individual page or in monthly context. For more material from my journal, visit my home page or the archive.
Before my six-year-old daughter was even born, I dropped out of the habit of wearing contact lenses. My eyesight is terrible, so I wear glasses all the time unless I'm sleeping or in the shower. But my last pair of proper prescription sunglasses is more than six years old too, and being huge and heavy, looks pretty dorky. So a couple of days ago I got myself a new pair:
Yeah, they're red, and they're Ray Bans. If I was going to spend $300 on a pair of polarized, high-tech sunglasses for my heavy prescription, I figured I may as well get something funky.
