Growf

Last Thursday at work the screw holding my frame together for my left eyeglasses lens popped out and went unrecovered. I fixed that problem with a bent paperclip.
So today the screw for the extra hinge for the left earpiece decided to break.

I need new glasses.

Um, yeah... ;)

You should get Harry Potter frames. :P

Then, once you find the screw that fits, take it out, put a dab of SuperGlue or clear nail polish on the tip, and put it in again!

(Though you still probably need new glasses. Have a new Rx yet?)

This is a Sign, yes.

Get new glasses!

Just go to the Costco optician tonight. We can afford it.

*chuckle* I'm working on getting an appointment with my optometrist for similar reasons. My glasses have been held together with a bit of paperclip for the past year.

Well I can recommend someone for you his name is

He is a GREAT doctor. He is the guy that I took "M" and "C" to to get their glasses. Very GEEK friendly and very liberal minded. :) I've been going to him since I was in high school.

Unfortunately, that'll be a bit of a long trek from Ohio...

Ya know I keep forgetting that Live Journal is an international thing I forget to look up people's profiles before I post stuff.
This was more aimed at [livejournal.com profile] teddywolf for the location of the eyeglass Dr.
LOL

He's great! I just went to him recently, recommended by Queue, and I had a great time (which really isn't something I tend to say about an optometrist appointment....).
