My Favorite Thing
Today I got to do one of my favorite things in the world: pick out new glasses (at Denver’s most awesome place to get glasses). Do you know what I love more than glasses? My family. My animals. Beer. Pizza. Winning at fantasy football. And that’s about it. Today, the experience was even more awesome than usual because it’s the end of the year, glasses are on sale, and I had a nice chunk of flex spending money that has to be used by the 31st. Unfortunately, a nice chunk of flex spending money doesn’t go as far as you might like when you have to get an awesome pair of prescription sunglasses that are 24-karat-gold-plated titanium, individually numbered, and handmade in Japan. Holy crap I didn’t even know that existed. They’re ridiculous, but you know how some women put on a wedding dress and just know it’s The One and can’t muster even a glint of excitement for any other dresses? That’s how it was with these sunglasses. It’s hard out there for a pimp.
As for the regular glasses, my usual practice is to wear sunglass frames as regular glasses. This time, I did something different. I got these.
Okay, not really. I did get sunglasses to wear as regular glasses. But I did say that I want to make Rec Specs happen. And I do. And one day I will, I swear.
Unfortunately, I won’t have my new glasses until the week after next and somehow the woman who photographs everything forgot to take pictures while trying them on. So I can’t show you yet. But soon!
In the meantime, if you want to see some awesome glasses that aren’t the usual hipster style, check out Advanced Style. Those ladies rock the hell out of some glasses.
