I've never thought I'd say this, I really really didn't. But thank the gods for my glasses.
My eyes have gone way beyond tired today and putting my glasses on felt like heaven.

A year ago the doc told me I seem to have astigmatism. (For those who are too lazy to wiki it up: "Astigmatism is an optical defect whereby vision is blurred due to the inability of the optics of the eye to focus a point object into a sharp focused image on the retina.")
She even asked me to get glasses if my workplace would pitch in. They didn't, but my mom insisted on getting them, so we did. Selecting a frame I liked... well, that was something nightmarish. I even wore my glasses sometimes, but it wasn't that big of a deal. I mean I'd see details a bit better on things 5kms away, so... No big deal.

But my eyes were so bloody tired I thought why the hell not. So I put them on and good gods, most of the strain is off.

And anyway, I'm always told I look good with glasses.
Still, this weekend I think I'll leave them home, if things go well. Getting laid is never easy on glasses. *.~
