A day which shall live ...

Today I had to retire my red glasses with the little rhinestones on the side.  Yup.

I was at work and I couldn't get whatever was on the lenses to come off.  It was difficult to see properly.  So I kept rubbing them and rubbing them, and then I noticed that some layer of plastic was coming off the frames.  I don't doubt that the weather played some part in this, since anything pleather I own is doing the same thing.  Separating from the surface and peeling off.  But ... they were $20 glasses and they served me well over the last four or so years.

RIP, little red glasses.  RIP.

  1. I wore contacts for a pretty brief period of time, and even then it was primarily just for cosplay or going to concerts. Then I got a pretty raging eye infection (in both eyes) that ultimately (through a chain of events) landed me in the hospital for ten days.

    I was told by the ophthalmologist (who was an idiot for so many reasons, but not this one) that due to all the factors I had going against me, I just wasn't a good candidate for contacts and should never wear them. I've probably worn contacts less than a dozen times since (again, mostly just for cosplay and concerts), and I don't think I've worn them at all in about five years.

    Fortunately I have about 10 pairs of glasses.

  2. Yes, I suspected as much... Regardless, that was an extremely stock Kyolicious-y response. The token anecdote, health complaint, blaming someone, the Kyolicious fun fact, everything! It's true!

    BTW... Didn't you order a shiny new Dollfie just a while back senpai??? Is it a surprise? XD

  3. I try to give as much information as possible. I could just as easily say, "I can't wear contacts," which would be kind of vague, or I can explain why I don't wear them. And that's the short version. (The long version includes all the gory details.)

    The new doll is something I have to pay off in installments, so unfortunately there's no doll news to share as of now. :/
