Getting a clear look at process of getting new glasses | Paskhaver (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are no disasters, only opportunities. And, indeed, opportunities for fresh disasters. I’ve gotten a real sense of perspective, having melted my glasses last week. I do not exaggerate when I say the preceding eight days have been the worst days in the history of humanity, worse than the Black Death, the Spanish Inquisition, and the last season of “Game of Thrones.” Some context regarding plastic and cars: if you leave a pair of specs on the dashboard of a Toyota and spend three hours at an
