"This time of year is an especially spiritual time for everyone, no matter what you believe in." and it totally got my hackles up.
Honestly, it makes me want to punch people in the face. Which is not, shockingly, a Thing for me.
Do I wish I was somebody else right now. Somebody not... married, not madly in love with a beautiful woman who can kill me with her pinkie!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

But it's a little bizarre how strongly the previous pair of glasses I had imprinted on my own self-image.
I have two pairs and they are really, really different. So I imprint on one or the other depending on which I tend to wear. Then it's all Big Change.
I need new glasses too. I am fearing this. Because what I really need is someone to tell me what frames physically work on my face and then figuring out what flatters. It's terrifying.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
"This time of year is an especially spiritual time for everyone, no matter what you believe in." and it totally got my hackles up.
Uh, yeah, no. And even us Christians stole it off the pagans, so it's not like it's coincidentally a "spiritual time" or anything.
It's terrifying.
It is! It's like my whole self-image, somehow. AND he gave me free sample contacts, which changes how I look again!

Do you want to borrow Pete? He's really good at figuring that sort of thing out.

I had a whole conversation with myself in the car about this yeaterday because Pete is the obvious person to ask but I fear I'll cry. So maybe?
Clearly I'd end up with the best glasses for my face and life. I just fear the therapy bills. Actually, no, I fear the process. I hate crying in front of people. But I might end up with glasses that are worth it. You totally did.
I'm going to email tomorrow. Asking Pete to be totally honest is scary. Because he would.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I love glasses, but yeah, shopping for them can be hard. Not as hard as shopping for jeans, mind you, but still hard. I do not at all need a new pair, but I'd love to get a new pair anyway.
K asks, "Dad what's your favorite element?" Dad says, "Oxygen." K says, "Mine is Carbon." Sister says, "Mine is Helium." K says, "Mom, what is your favorite element?" I say, "Surprise."
That's fucking brilliant! Oh, that reminds me, Isaac made up a joke! Why did Darth Vader cross the road?
Answer: To get to the dark side.
His grandfather (my dad) would be so proud of him!
