I Must Be High

It's a humbling moment when you realize you've misplaced your glasses, but cannot find them because you cannot see.

or that time when i was wearing my contacts when i went to sleep, but instinctively reached for my glasses when i woke up, and then spent the next 20 minutes trying to figure out why i couldn't see.

That's a lot like the time I didn't realize I had a tampon in and put another one in with it. That might have explained the upset stomach all day.

My Mom-Mom always forgets her glasses, then finds them ... on her head.

Yeah, I actually looked there. I ended up finding them under my chair. Of *course*!

This is why you always should leave glasses within groping distance. Though I'm often found stumbling around unable to find either...

Haha. Yes. Been there.

My mother used to make me be her glasses-finder (back when I was little and didn't yet need vision correction myself). This was especially fun when it was the 80s and she wore these huge clear plastic frames. They were basically invisible glasses.

That's amazing.

My friend's mom has about five pairs of over-the-counter drugstore reading glasses. Whenever I'm over, there's always at least one search for them. I really think she should just put them each on a chain (like they have for pens at the bank) and attach a pair to each place where she's likely to be reading.

I'm also waiting for someone to make a paging device like the ones for cordless phones so that I can just click a button and make my glasses beep. Of course, I'd probably just lose the key, too.
