Bossy has finally given it up to reading glasses. And honestly? If you have to wear ’em, you may as well look like your Uncle Sammy.

March 6, 2012 at 9:47 amI too have had to succumb to *shudder* … progressive lenses. And in order to afford them so my eyes could see, I had to sacrifice an arm and leg.
Bossy looks like herself, urban chic. Does Uncle Sammy have the urban chic look too?

March 6, 2012 at 9:57 amwhen I saw this image, I thought “crap – I copied bossy” because I just got these same frames – in tortoise shell… I’m happy to hear that I’m just LIKE Bossy and not copying her in an unhealthy stalkery way.

March 6, 2012 at 11:28 amI got those readers, too. But! I don’t really wear them because I’m not ready to surrender. I’ve taken to wearing only one contact, and that seems to do the trick for now. I will not go gently into that dark night.

March 6, 2012 at 1:40 pmDUDE those glasses are awesome. I wish I needed glasses just so I could rock a super cool pair like that!

March 8, 2012 at 10:16 amLOVE the glasses…I embrace my eye site degeneration because I think it makes me look smarter, when in reality it just irritates the poop out of me that I fall asleep with them on my face and they fall in the floor in the middle of the night.
P.S. I am a long time follower of you and Pioneer Woman and just found out that you both are friends. I was super pumped when I found this out. It’s always exciting to hear that the bloggers you follow are buds!

March 8, 2012 at 5:57 pmI’ve worn glasses for most of my adult life but it was because my distance vision sucked. When my up-close eyeball went, too, it was either progressive lenses for me or moving through life in both a visual AND mental fog. I chose to only try navigating one fog at a time. That’s right – I started taking antidepressants and speed. Seriously, I opted for the progressive lenses, but in as skinny a frame as I could get away with. I’m not as rad as Bossy, but I still look pretty cool.

March 11, 2012 at 8:03 pmOh Bossy, I can’t even chop my mise en place without my reading glasses anymore. Welcome to the club.

March 15, 2012 at 12:05 amI’ve been basically blind without glasses/contacts since third grade. Welcome to the dark side, Bossy. Couldn’t have picked cuter glasses to join with!

March 17, 2012 at 6:13 pmOh Bossy – you’re such the hipster!
I recall that fateful moment when I discovered while waiting in line at Ace Hardware that the readers on the rack cleared things up so markedly…
I now curse darkly-lit restaurants with small font menus, and dark-labeled cans. My far vision is hawk-like, however. I can read signs across the prairie.

March 30, 2012 at 2:10 pmIt came down to contacts for distance + reading glasses, OR glasses for distance and NO READING GLASSES. So, I gave up the contacts and now I remove my glasses to read. Filed under: Born in the 1960s
