Stylin'

So I lost my prescription sunglasses somewhere in Kansas City. Yesterday I finally managed to get into the eye doctor to get my prescription checked and get the ball rolling on replacements. I was wheedled into picking out some really funky frames (it didn't take much effort). They are brown plastic, with a lighter yellow-brown plastic behind, and the arms are carved with circles to show off the inner-plastic. There's also a hole behind the hinge with a large-ish rhinestone at the edge. When I took these to the counter so they could write up the paperwork the following conversation took place:

Lady: Oooh, good choice! These will look SO much better than what you're wearing now.
Me: No no no, those are for sunglasses. I'm not getting rid of my glasses frames. I love these frames.
Lady: But....they're so conservative!
Me: They have bling!
Lady: (skeptically) Where?
Me: Here and here!
Lady: Hmph. You'd need pretty good eyesight to see that.

So yeah, that was was pretty funny.

Man, I find choosing frames probably the most irritating part of the whole glasses experience. Glad you found some pretty quick :)

Poo. I like your current glasses - I think they're elegant.
