i can't see ya

it doesn't matter how expensive your eye glasses are, if you are blind as a bat they will still look ugly as heck once your glass block frames are added.

my prescription: -11.25 (left) -10.75 (right) and throw in an astigmatism for good measure**

technically i'm not legally blind because my eyes can be corrected, i.e. with contacts or glasses i can see perfectly fine. but i would kill to wake up in the morning and just be able to see, which is probably why i choose to fall asleep with my glasses still on 6 out of 7 nights a week.

what happens is i'm usually watching some late night monologue from bed about to doze off when the obvious happens, i fall asleep.

(insert dreams of unicorns, rainbows, sex with russell crowe, volcanoes, and bloggers being inappropriate)

around 6:15am my alarm goes off for the first time, i say first time cause i hit snooze approximately 6 times. after hitting snooze for the first time i move my hands around my bed to look for my glasses, if they aren't still on, check my alarm clock and go back to sleep - glasses on.

for the next hour of snooze buttoning my right arm subconsciously hits the top of my clock radio while my face is in the pillow with my glasses smooshing into my face.

by the time my lazy ass finally drags myself out of bed my glasses have been back on my face for at least an hour causing a nice indent in my forehead above my left eyebrow.

just picture waking up to an indent on my forehead, coke bottle glasses and bed head every morning - and i wonder why i'm single.

thankfully prada makes good sturdy eye glasses cause they haven't broke yet.

now, if only someone will donate that ridiculously expensive and non insurance covered eye lenses implants to me i wouldn't have to deal with the above crap. any takers?

**just in case you are wondering, if i was able to get lasik i would have gotten it many, many, years ago - my eyes are actually too bad for the surgery.
