Jun. 28th, 2006 03:29 pmI broke my glasses this morning.
I am very blind without my glasses.
Finding my back-up pair of glasses is difficult when I can't see (I'd already had my original pair shipped off to be repaired, so I couldn't use the standard masking tape temporary solution). Fortunately, I found my prescription swimming goggles, so I wore those so I could find my old glasses.
And I realized that I should really keep a pair of back-up glasses in my car. Because what if I was an hour's drive away from home when my glasses broke? I'd have to call someone to come out and fetch me, because driving without my glasses is the stuff that nightmares are made of. (I haven't had many nightmares since my middle school days, but I've probably had the blind driving one a half dozen times)

Date: 2006-06-28 10:33 pm (UTC)I usually wear contacts, and I'm also deathly afraid of losing them or losing one and suddenly being unable to see. I usually just carry around a spare pair of glasses all the time. I should also start carrying around a spare pair of contacts for the days I decide to wear glasses. :-)
