Different Perspectives on Glasses
I must admit that all the fumbling around is inconvenient—particularly now that I'm in my 40s and have separate driving/computer vs. reading glasses.
But I love wearing glasses almost as much as Goldstein does. Both my pairs are unbelievably cute. In fact, even my supermarket sunglasses are unbelievably cute. Come to think of it, I'm pretty freaking unbelievably cute.
Of course, not everyone likes wearing glasses. Too bad, and somewhat incomprehensible to me. Of course, much of life is just like that.
I seem to remember waking up 20 years ago in a dorm room in Poughkeepsie to the exclamation, "look! It's snowing." So I looked.
And then I heard a somewhat wistful remark: "I wish I could do that."
"Do what?"
"Just look. Without having to do anything else."
Well. Now he can.

I like my glasses, which as opposed to being rimless are actually quite heavily rimmed. And I don't always need them, although they are helpful for making out, oh say...someone's facial features at 30 yards.
The only time I wear my glasses when I don't have to (like to the grocery store or walking the dog) is when I think they will cover another flaw I have going that day. Or if I'm just in the mood to look like a smart glasses-type girl.

I'm with the Wish I Could Just Look guy.
I was horribly nearsighted most of my life. Without glasses, legally blind.
That's why I got Lasik.
And despite some drawbacks, it was one of the happiest events of my life.
Seeing is good.
