Bling Bling Ka-ching said the four eyed girl

After considerable denial, procrastination, and behaving downright miserly I finally surrendered and trekked over to the local optometrist to have my vision checked. Granted I have always had 20/20 vision in the past, however, I recently noticed I was beginning to squint whenever reading print from a far distance. After locating a coupon for a $1 eye exam (in retrospect my naivety in spending only $1 was comical) I made the journey to the eye care center. As luck would have it, I actually need glasses. While the prescription I require is indeed minimal, I am slightly nearsighted, particularly in my left eye. In addition, due to the fact I am often in front of a computer while working, I also need glasses whenever I am typing or reading for prolonged periods of time. The silver lining throughout this ordeal is the fact I do not have to wear either pair of glasses at all times (primarily only when driving, reading or typing for prolonged periods of time). Naturally I fell in love with the most expensive designer pair (Michael Kohrs to be exact) and subsequently purchased the glasses (which will arrive early next week). While I paid dearly for the glasses I have at least found some small comfort in knowing that if I must wear glasses I will certainly be styling and profiling.
