My ever-reliable eyeglasses for 4 years have been forced to resign due to a devastating accident that caused him to end his term. And its all my fault. I'm so sorry. The truth is, I sat on it. I usually place my eyeglasses in the nightstand but that night I just placed it somewhere in the bed.
Saturday morning (3 am), I was in complete oblivion when AJ started to cry(he was sleeping with us in our bed that night). After I fed and burped him, he went straight to sleep again like nothing happened. I sat at the edge of the bed then laid him on his back. It was then I realized that I was not wearing my glasses. I searched the bed and found it under the blanket (the same spot where I sat earlier), the bridge of the glasses was bent. Slowly, I tried to straighten it but it snapped into half instead. For about a minute I just looked at it in shock. I didn't dwell on it too much since I was still in sleeping mode. When I woke up, that's the time I realized that weekends are rest day of my eyes from wearing contact lenses. No eyeglasses would mean inconvenience because I have to clean and put on my contact lenses when I wake up and take it off if I take a nap and put it back on when I wake up. Hassle!!

I have to get a new pair pronto! And that's exactly what I did Monday after lunch. I dragged Mareng Rachel to the optical shop to scout for a new pair of glasses with one rule in mind, round face should wear angular frame. And from the piles and piles of glasses that was presented to us by the optometrist (from Ralph Lauren to Oakley to Armani brand of glasses) I settled with Marithe+Francois Girbaud (which was the cheapest ...hehehe!). I'm happy to have found the perfect pair for me.

I don't have the energy to put my reading glasses in its hard case every time I put them down. And I too, sat on one once. My usual habit is placing them on a surface away from usual activity... but the problem becomes... "Where did I put my glasses???"
luckily, I don't have this problem with glasses yet, but I think I will soon. :(
