Monday night – specs

I’m seeing the world differently tonight… and I mean that most literally. . I picked up my new hi-tech glasses this afternoon. They are titanium, super light weight and more or less bulletproof. I’m always working with tools and several times over the years my glasses have saved my sight. I always were safety glasses.. but hey.. you never know.

I htink im goign to like these.. they are a little stronger than my last pair.. and .. I’m happy to say.. just as unfashionable… I shopped around for a long time dodging fashionable 20 somethings trying to get me into something square or heavy rimmed.   I finally found someone who understood what I meant when I said    I was goign for Dumbledoor  🙂

 

I am the kind of guy that worries that my old glasses feelings will be hurt.. so I will take a picture of them as well.. Thanks for your service guys.. you’ve helped me see  (if not think) clearly for several years…

FWIW.. these are an engineering marvel…. the frames are titanium .. they are so light i can hardly feel them.. and they’re blended trifocals.  I’m a mix of farsighted and astigmatic.. I can see far away.. but cant read anything closer than new hampshire.   With my glasses off, I see double.. which is nice in that I feel less lonely.. but kind of hard when I’m welding or soldering or something..

 

The funny thing is .. I didn’t see in good stereo for years..  I only got glasses right before the Colony because I was tired of faking to folks that I could still read.. … Even then, I just used grocery store readers that I wore all the time..   First time I got trifocals I felt I was in a bad 1970’s anti drug movie.. the walls were breathingand the floor was moving…

 

 

now I’m sort of used to it..

 

sort of..
