I bought glasses yesterday, as my eyes are horribly short sighted. Designer frames, scratch resistant and anti-glare lenses, and obviously the eye test to qualify... and err, the frames just broke. -?247 and a bit disgruntled. Thank me and my girlfriend that I kept the receipt because I gotta go back to Vision Express tomorrow now!

Ouch! That's not good, you don't have much money atm, do you?

I have about ?150 to last me a month
i.e. I am going to STTRRUUUUUUGGGGLLLE to live this month

Hmm, that's not good, good luck with that.

I have ?6500 :S

I paid for that.

WTF? Paid for what?

I work for a living

We know, but what you're saying doesn't make sense in relation to everything else! :S

I pay for him, if you know what I mean. I also pay for my brother, and other unemployed people. Tis also known as Gordon Brown Beer Money.

Oh, lol!

By the way I look great in glasses. Extra nerdy now. Sort of like Kyhas.

LOLage, I've gotta see that....

You will do soon, no doubt, because I have to wear them pretty much all the time unless I am looking at things very close up.

Ah, I see, when you realise you had poor eyesight?

Ah, a few years ago. Sort of around Year 9.

And you haven't had glasses before? Or have I just not seen you with them?

Yeah I had them befiore, but my eyes weren't so bad that I had to wear them more than half the time... then I lost them

Ah OK, I see. So when you lost them you had to go back for more and found out your eyes had got worse?

Almost that;

I realised that my eyes were getting worse because I am beginning to find it hard to look at a computer monitor (it is too far away for my eyes to focus on) and thought "OK, I do actually need glasses". I knew that my old glasses wouldn't be much use, but when I tried to look for them, I had lost them.

But I found them the other day when I was clearing out my old room while getting ready to move in to my new place, which I am now living in! Yay!

Heh, I see, not good.

Hows moving in going?

It's going really well at the moment.

Currently, I have finished the first coat of paint in my bedroom (it was a nasty orange colour before). I'm changing it to a cream colour. Nice and neutral; can't really go wrong with cream.

My fantastic mother just bought my a ?30 desk from Asda, too. It's nice and sturdy looking. Shame I don't have a flat head screwdriver to put it together.

Hmm, if you need any tools, I'm sure I could lend you a couple.
